BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3) - ADVISABLE
AUDIENCE APPEAL: MANY
Join a cast of banana characters as they take a classic chant and turn it into an infectiously fun read-a-loud, helping turn sad days and frowns upside down.
At first, I thought the author's name was a pun, and I'm still not sure it isn't. Regardless, I got a kick out of this picture book, even though when I read it aloud, it did get a little repetitive. But that is part of the fun, I suspect, for a read-a-loud book. You want the kids to know how to join along. I could see this being very popular for the K-3 crowd, and you may be able to stretch it to older crowds if you got a teacher who really got into it, but I definitely recommend it for lower elementary students.
