Brian Banana Duck Sunshine Yellow

This is a wonderful, innovative, quirky picture book about a child's search for identity and the need to belong - and a glorious celebration of the colour yellow. 'This picture book is a celebration of the child's search for identity. It's about the desire to stand out from a crowd, but also the need to belong. It's about the power of words and names to give us a personality and a place in the world. It's about relationships with family. It's about individuality and the importance of imagination in the development of the individual persona. It's about the capacity for art to express feelings. It's a quirky, totally original, visual poem to the child's innate celebration of all that is creative in the human heart.' - Dr. Robyn Sheahan-Bright. On Friday nights, all day Saturday and most of Sunday I stay with Na-na and Grumpy Yellow. One Saturday, I got lost. Twice. The first time, a big prawn found me. The second time, I found my own way home.
