"A delightful tale to help readers figure out where they belong, and, if a wise tomato is any indication, why that question may not even matter."-- School Library Journal, 2024 Illinois Monarch Award Readers Choice List "A delightful tale to help readers figure out where they belong, and, if a wise tomato is any indication, why that question may not even matter." -- School Library Journal "A tale that will entertain young readers for its witty wordplay. . . .

Synopsis
A deliciously funny book about identity and being confident in your own skin--featuring the world's most popular superfood, the avocado! Avocado is feeling just fine in the produce section at the supermarket until a young customer asks a difficult question: "Is an avocado a fruit or a vegetable?" Avocado doesn't know the answer either, and the question won't seem to go away! Soon, Avocado is in the midst of a full-on identity crisis. Children will laugh along as Avocado hunts for answers in each aisle of the grocery store, chatting with fish, cans of beans, sausages, and finally a tomato, who confides to Avocado that he doesn't know what HE is either, adding "And. I. Don't. Care." With cool, vivid artwork and a funny twist on every page, here is a story that celebrates individuality and fluidity, letting children know they are perfect just as they are and however they choose to express themselves., A deliciously funny book about identity and being confident in your own skin--featuring the world's most popular superfood, the avocado!

Item description from the seller
Seller feedback (9,379)
- a***h (25)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe book was competitively priced, ordering was easy, the book was well packaged and arrived safely, and its condition was exactly as specified.The delivery time from ordering to mailbox was a little long (14 days), but overall it was a good experience and I would use this seller again.
- n***a (191)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseMy kid really wanted this, and she likes it. I don’t think the value is great, just more HP commercialism. (She paid me and I ordered, btw.) The price from this seller on eBay is less than anywhere else we found. Reviews citing LONG wait between order and receiving the items are correct: give this seller a full 2 weeks to get items to you. The set arrived carefully packaged and pristine. Overall, my daughter is very pleased with the item. If you can be patient, seller offers good value.
- o***r (90)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseI received this item (a book) in excellent, brand-new condition. I had contacted the seller to point out that, according to the tracking info, the book had not left its point of departure after 15 days, but I would wait another week before requesting a refund. The seller took care of that problem immediately — I received the book within a few days. I'm very pleased and look forward to ordering from this seller again.
