Nat's humungously small bananas**

We have something amazing in our class. They are called humungously small bananas. Nat had these bananas for her snack and they are so small that you can fit them in the palm of your hand! Nat and her Mum got the bananas from her auntie's banana tree in Feilding. " She has about five banana trees" says Nat. So there is no doubt that there will be more humungously small bananas sooner or later.
