Book review – Avocado Asks, What Am I? written by Momoko Abe

This is an incredible story for many reasons. We have chosen it as it is a brilliant book for introducing your child to descriptive words. 

Avocado Asks is a story of an avocado whose life turned upside down one day. Avocado was minding their own business when the question of ‘Is an avocado a fruit or a vegetable?’ was asked. 

Poor Avocado wasn't sure of the answer, so they went on a mission to find out what they were. Avocado meets a friend who teaches them that it really doesn't matter.  

On their adventure, Avocado first finds out loads about what they are not, but then also learns why they are so good.  

The book is a colourful and entertaining approach to help children find out that they are amazing and unique, just the way they are.  

This wonderful book is great for igniting lots of creative discussions. The language is funny, the graphics are elegant and engaging, and the story is endearing and encouraging. You will hear words such as crunchy, juicy, chuckled, splendid and terrific, plus many, many more.
