Nothing Rhymes with Orange

Nothing Rhymes with Orange

Adam Rex2017
We all know nothing rhymes with orange. But how does that make Orange feel? Well, left out! When a parade of fruit gets together to sing a song about how wonderful they are—and the song happens to rhyme—Orange can't help but feel like it's impossible for him to ever fit in. But when one particularly intuitive Apple notices how Orange is feeling, the entire English language begins to become a bit more inclusive. Beloved author-illustrator Adam Rex has created a hilarious yet poignant parable about feeling left out, celebrating difference, and the irrefutable fact that nothing rhymes with orange.

I may or may not have read this book while standing in the middle of the store and then immediately turned to my mom and said "this is so funny, we HAVE to get this for my nephew". It's silly and the art style is different and eye catching. I would highly recommend!

Hands down one of the most endearing, funny, charming, adorable picture books out there. I'm in love with that little orange. Lots of lolz here.
