Fruit Salad

(Author) Chiara Armellini

Here’s a funny way to cut up fruits... and name them!

Promising hours of fun, this interactive letterpress book on Indian fruits invites children (and adults) to flip the pages to mix, match and make their own salad from the fruit slices. Start by opening the first spread, identify the fruit and find its name. Then begin to flip open the pages randomly... and find the strangest fruit you’ve ever seen, with the most absurd names.

Conceived and designed by the award winning French designer and illustrator Chiara Armellini, during a residency with Tara Books as a part of Villa Swagatam a network of residencies supported by the French Embassy in India – French Institute in India.

Fruit Salad has been printed on a letter press, bringing out the vivid, vintage quality of its colours.
