Terrible plans. One banana. Zero giving up. Bongo the chimpanzee has spotted something magnificent. Something golden. Something PERFECT. The last banana in the jungle - hanging at the very tippity-top of the tallest, smoothest, most unreachable tree imaginable. What follows is a spectacular series of disasters involving a very slippery tree trunk, a sneezing giraffe, a pelican with terrible priorities, four hundred and twelve butterflies, and a bee with absolutely no respect for personal space. Through it all, Winifred the parrot watches with one eyebrow permanently raised. Clyde the sloth dispenses advice from his mud puddle at the speed of a slowly melting glacier. And Bongo keeps going - because some things are simply worth it. A wildly funny, heartwarming picture book about persistence, creativity, and the unstoppable power of really, really wanting a banana. Perfect for bedtime reading and classroom storytime. Vibrant, detailed illustrations on every page. Laugh-out-loud humour for children AND parents. A positive message about determination and never giving up. For every dreamer with a terrible plan - your banana is up there. Keep climbing. Recommended for ages 3-7.
