About This Book

Annie Bananie is the most exciting friend a girl could have — she eats ants, she does headstands, she's fearless. But now Annie Bananie is moving away, and her best friend has to say goodbye.

Why This Age

The loss-of-a-friend theme hits harder for 6-8 year olds who have formed deep friendships and understand the permanence of moving away.

How to Use

  • Talk about friends who have moved or times your child has had to say goodbye
  • Write a letter to a friend you miss
  • Discuss: 'What makes Annie Bananie such a good friend?'
