Someone has stolen Patrick's banana! But with the help of his friends Kevin and Arty, he's set out to track down his missing fruit (and the cowardly thief who took it).
    
It's up to Kevin and Arty to play detective to find out where the banana might be. Maybe it was taken while Patrick was playing soccer? Or while Patrick was reading a book? Perhaps it happened when Patrick went in to the kitchen and ate a banana. 
    
Wait a minute...

Banana. Kinnda dumb but F U N N Y!!!!!!!

Meaganpari

So many laughs. I don't know if it's the illustrations or the story, but my daughter CRACKS UP when we read her this story. It's our "out of town" or "on the go" story as it lives on my phone, but I'd gladly buy hard copy just to hear those precious giggles! Will most likely be buying this authors other stories as well.

PeterGulka

Well then. That right there is a fantastic book. So says Natalie, Brennan, Amelia, Lilly and their dad. Yes indeed. Wait.... Now where is *my* banana?

:P hi

This book SUCKS. This book is really kiddyish and no one should read it it's not even good for two year olds!!!!

Xcountry Coach

The case of the missing banana. This book is awesome

Jennwick

great story,wrong font. The pictures and concept of this story are engaging and cute. Clear, simple illustrations with adorable characters and varied facial expressions make this a "read again and again" story. Here's the "but" - the font is italicized. The length, word choice and word count on each page make this books fall better into an early reader category rather than a longer read with a parent story, but the font makes it very challenging for children to read by themselves or even follow along as a parent reads.

Jeff Thistle

Great and funny. My 6 year old says "it's really great and funny, you should buy it."

Malcolmdijd

Cool book. This was awesome

Lizbiba
