Great book for early years. Made up a story sack to go with it with some fruit and a wooden chopping fruit game. Oliver’s Milkshake is worth buying as a complimentary story. We also have Handas Surprise as that has a fruit element.

My little nephew is called Oliver and he loves eating fruit!

This is part of a series about a little boy called Oliver and his preconceptions of fruit and vegetables. It made a good intro to our planned topic of making a fruit salad and opened up some good comments from our preschool group. Nice bright pictures and opportunities to name and count fruit on some pages. Nice little book.

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.

This set of books are fantastic – especially the bright and cheerful illustrations and the overall visual effect of the book. it’s a book that makes you want to read it before you begin and glad you did read it once you finish.

I read this book to the kids and used it as part of an activity at preschool and they really enjoyed it. Personally I think it’s a great book to encourage children to try fruits, the illustrations are a little outdated and dark it would be great if it was updated so it’s more clear to see but that’s just my opinion. Great book definitely recommend it.

I bought this to read to my reception class as we were doing a theme on fruit. It was really good as a follow-up to Oliver’s vegetables. We went on to make our own fruit salad and talk abolut our favourite fruits. I would recommend this to any teacher who is doing a theme on fruit.
