About This Book

*"A must-have for all picture book collections." --School Library Journal (starred review)

"An a-peeling alphabet adventure."-- Kirkus reviews

From the creators of Counting to Bananas, comes a new, hilarious bedtime ABC book about a Banana who doesn't want to go to bed. Perfect for fans of Jory John, Mo Willems, and Ryan T. Higgins!


A is for Awake . . . but B is for Bedtime. 

When the narrator of this alphabet book tries to make it a bedtime book, Banana objects. Bedtime is BORING! And Banana is the star of this book, so it should really be called B Is for Bananas instead. It shouldn't be about bedtime at all. 

Journey through all the letters of the alphabet in this laugh-out-loud story from Carrie Tillotson and Estrela Lourenço about a banana who is NOT ready to go to bed.

The perfect next read for those who loved the Bad Seed series and Hey Bruce by Ryan T. Higgins!

Praise for B is for Bananas!:
