Children's Book

This is a Children's Book I read to my twin boys. I loved the title and cover of this book, and I found the puns to be so cute. My boys really enjoyed this book. I loved seeing Avi the Avocado open up, and he has become one of my favorite characters from children's books. I will have to buy this book when it comes out to give to my kids teachers because I think it will be great for teachers and classrooms. I received an ARC of this book. This review is my own honest opinion about the book like all my reviews are.
