Have you ever seen a banana in a bikini Or a tangerine in trunks What about grapes in goggles In this uproarious follow-up to Vegetables in Underwear, kids will learn that there are many kinds of suits - including suits for swimming, surfing, sunbathing, and scuba diving. But can you wear a business suit to the beach Fruits in Suits has the same irreverent silliness as Vegetables in Underwear and shows just how much fun swimsuits can be - and how important it is to hold on to them when you jump into the water!
A delicious assortment of anthropomorphic fruit is decked out in a variety of stylish bathing suits... The minimal text, consisting mostly of quick descriptions of the fruits attire, utilizes a limited vocabulary digestible for beginning readers. Meanwhile, the crisp, brightly colored digital cartoon renderings of the fruit and their swimming accoutrementsall set against a stark white backgroundmake this fashion show a delightful feast for the eyes. * Booklist *
Humorous illustrations of swimming, sunning, and surfing fruits... A delightful choice for a giggle-filled preschool storytime in season or anytime. * School Library Journal *
