Customer Reviews

Brilliant illustrations and a lovable main character

My daughter loves to read her "mango" book and tell me which animals and fruits are on the pages. The lively and colorful images make this a fun book that also teaches deductive reasoning. Marti needs to find a mango to bring to his friend's pot luck dinner party -- his problem lies in that he doesn't know what a mango looks like. Marti sets out and actually learns what a mango IS by researching and discovering what a mango ISN'T. Definitely a book to read over and over. I can't wait to see what Marti's next adventure is.
