Product Description

Review

The straightforward text is personalised with simple dialogue that should make reading aloud fun, and Bartlett's sturdy, unbordered double-page spread paintings, in a style so unaffected that it resembles children's own artwork, are a rainbow of fruit colors - strawberry, red, lemon, yellow, lime green, and more. Great for lap sharing or use with small groups. (Booklist (1998))

A friendly, round-headed cast with pin-dot blue eyes and broad smilles introduce the tasty possibilities of fresh fruit withour ever dropping the vaguest hint of (shh!) nutrition, and the luscious, sunshiny palette of Bartlett's acrylic paintings will set the taste buds tingling. How about this juicy selection just before snack time? (Bull Cent Child Book (1998))

5.0 out of 5 stars fab colourful book 14 Feb 2009
By Mum of 3 and year 2 teacher
Format:Paperback
This is a wonderful book, my own children love it and my year 2 class adored it. We used it during a topic on food. The previous week we had read Oliver's vegetables. The illustrations are bright and lively and the text perfect for young children to engage with.

5.0 out of 5 stars oliver's series 25 Mar 2011
By Mrs. C. M. Kirk
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Bought all 3 of Oliver's books - vegetables, fruit salad and milk shake. Simple stories that have themes throughout such as ending with laughter, Oliver not liking things. As a teacher of Y1 they proved to be a great resource for story writing, poetry writing, art work,maths (weighing vegetables, graphs), healthy eating and living and growing topics. Lots of cooking too. All round great cross curricular resource.
Lovely illiustrations too.
Would recommend highly for this age group.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fruit Salad? 17 May 2011
By Ms. E. Kazwini
Format:Paperback
We read this book alongside Handa's Surprise and other stories focusing on fruits, building up to the children creating their own fruit salads, just like Oliver. A good way into the topic and a helpful tool for encouraging children who are less than enthusiastic about eating fruit!
