The Hargraves, a kind but scrawny family, want their new baby to grow up big and strong. But the tiny tyke will hardly eat a thing. One day, Mrs. Hargraves finds an avocado in the fruit bowl, and the infant gobbles it up. But then, the strangest things begin to happen as the baby develops superhuman strength. Just the book for picky eaters.
This book is super funny and our little boys just loved reading it. The story is about a baby who won't eat anything so the family begins to feed it avocados. The baby gets so strong that it can do lots of amazing, funny and really silly things like lift up his own cot. Eventually the super hero type baby saves the family from a theif in the night. A really silly story but lots of fun to laugh along with as you read it to your children. Not a classic, but funny none the less.
This book is an absolute favourite for Kindergarten children and Teachers alike! I consider it to be a classic that every library/centre should have. This baby's family are very worried about him... he doesn't each much! Until one day when he eats an avocado! From this day on he does amazing things.. helping to carry groceries, start the car, move furniture, and even chase a burglar from the house. The grand finale comes when he even manages to get rid of the 'bullies' at the park. This is a lovely story about a new addition to the family, sibling love and loyalty, and the stength of a babies' personality, especially when he eats well. An absolute MUST HAVE book, I regard this book to be in the class of The tiger who came to tea, 100% a Classic.
