Here's a simple story to introduce your baby to fruits.

Brownie the Bear has just arrived at the Grizzly Zoo.
Welcome, Brownie! Cheenu, the zookeeper, wants to find out which fruit Brownie loves the best. So, he gives Brownie the fruits, one by one!

Apple?
Brownie takes a bite, but it does not seem right.

Mango?
Brownie takes a bite, but it does not seem right.

Pineapple?
Brownie takes a bite, but it still does not seem right.

Orange?
Brownie takes a bite, but no, not right!

Strawberry?
Brownie takes a bite,
His face becomes bright.
Brownie gives a big, wide smile,
And breaks into a dance in high style.

Yes, Brownie loves his strawberries!
Hurray! Hurray! Hurray!
