Description

A classic story celebrating the power of babies... and avocados!

The Hargraves family want their new baby to grow up big and strong. But the puny mite will hardly eat a thing... until Mrs Hargraves finds an avocado in the fruit bowl and the baby gobbles it up. Soon, the baby gets incredible strength, and the strangest things start to happen!

This classic, heartwarming story from the bestselling author and illustrator John Burningham has been delighting families for over 40 years.
