Great gift for Nana!

Super cute book. We purchased this as a "Nana" Christmas gift from my boys to my mom (Nana). It's great for Nana's house (what nana doesn't like to read to her babies?!). I thought it was a cute gift because there's a ton of gifts for "grandma" but not a lot out there for "nana". Great for a birthday or Mother's Day from the grandbabies!

Great Kids Book!

Very cool book. Nice story and it teaches kids about the animals. I bought the book for reading to my 5 grandkids and they all love the book. It's becoming one of their favorites. Brad's the next Dr. Seuss and "Nana And The Banana" will become the next "Fox in Socks".

A VERY FUN AND CUTE READ

I loved reading this from cover to cover. The story is adorable, and even without the beautifully done illustrations, the story paints a very cute picture of a kind little girl and her very patient grandmother. Kudos to Mr. Burgunder. I hope he writes other children's books. I have friends that have little ones that will just love this one and more.
