Having finished fruit picking, four little animals have a rest and play a throwing game together. Unfortunately, one of their toys is flung over into a deep, dark wood and lands next to a very, very big fruit basket.

 

Whose basket is that?

They find out soon enough that the basket is of a scary, yellow-eyed "monster" with a thunderous roar: BA - BA!

 

Will they all be eaten!?

 

 

 

This beautifully illustrated book is almost wordless but is full of surprises and rich with imagination. The story of BA BA is a reminder for all of us that friendship and understanding can be forged despite language barriers, fear, and horrible presumptions.

What we all need is just a bit of courage to confront our prejudice and to re-learn.
