A Pair of Pears and an Orange

A Pair of Pears and an Orange

A joyful and heartwarming tale about friendship, feelings, and finding your place in the group.

Big Pear and Little Pear love playing together. They seesaw, play ping-pong, and ride their tandem bike — until Orange turns up and suddenly, three starts to feel like a crowd.

From the award-winning creator of Anemone is Not the Enemy, A Pair of Pears and an Orange is a witty and tender story that helps children navigate the ups and downs of friendship. Winner of the 2022 Speech Pathology Australia Book of the Year (3–5 years) and a CBCA Notable Book, it’s perfect for new kindergarten and school starters learning how to make (and keep) friends.

Beautifully illustrated in playful Pantone colours, this charming hardback picture book makes a meaningful gift for young readers, as well as a wonderful resource for teachers, parents, and librarians to spark conversations about inclusion and empathy.
