If I Was a Banana by Alexandra Tylee
If I was a banana, I would be that one, so beautifully yellow and full of banana . . . If I was an elephant I think I would have to be very careful where I put my feet . . . If I was a spoon I would be perfectly shaped and worn, with the silver fading in all the right places. A book that celebrates imagination and possibility, this boy's-eye-view of the everyday brings alive all the wonder and oddity of the world. It is simple and funny yet resonant, and begs to be read again.
"A New Zealand import, the low-key, whimsical exploration of imagination repays repeat readings" -Kirkus Reviews (US)
