FORENSICA Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 (edited) Hi, hubby is a member of a fruit club at work and they now decided to have a bit of fun. They are competing for the best name for a book, which has to contain some sort of fruit or its part. The prize is a chocolate orange and he is keen to get it So far we have Berry Potter and the order of the peelings. Around the world with eighty pears. Berry Potter and the prune's stone. Any other ideas? Yes, as Olly said, it needs to be made up but still recognizable to the original Edited May 7, 2009 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fizzle Knit Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 I guess the Grapes of Wrath and Oranges are Not the Only Fruit don't account on account of them already being book titles? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Well, there's 'Oranges are not the only fruit' but I'm assuming he needs made-up names! Gone with the Rind Jane Pear Pearsuasion Vanity Pear ... Pears do seem to lend themselves to this! Or of course, there's Captain Corelli's Mandarin! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FORENSICA Posted May 8, 2009 Author Share Posted May 8, 2009 Errmm - what's a fruit club? They have fruit delivered to the office every week so the ones who contribute to this always have a healthy snack on hand. They call themselves The Fruit club (as opposed to The Fight club ).
