Norwegian title: Kokosbananas og forte-seg-roboten

Illustrated by Victoria Haallman Hamre

The Children's Audio Favorite - now as picture books! Coco-Banana loves to take his time in the morning. Daddy Coconut does not, he is always busy. So Coco-Banana invents a Hurry-Up Robot, to help the family pick up speed in the mornings. But will the robot actually help the family, or will it create even more trouble for them?

Coco-Banana is a little inventer living with his family Mama Banana, Daddy Coconut and his little sister Baby Coco. In his inventor's shed Coco-Banana invents crazy inventions, something that always tend to get him into strange and hilarious situations - as funny for grown up readers as for small children.
