"This delightfully silly story subtly guides kids through the art of broaching new friendships and careful listening." -- The Washington Post
A shy child reaches out to a gorilla on a banana phone in this love letter to making friends from unexpected places. If You Make a Call on a Banana Phone is silly, wise, and surprising all at once.
If you make a call from a banana phone, who will answer? What will you talk about? Will you share secrets or ask questions? No one knows what will happen, really. This very silly story about two friends from very different places celebrates the joy and wisdom that comes from reaching out.
Go ahead, pick up a banana and make a call. You'll be glad you did.
