Description: Up and down the streets of New Orleans, Mr. Okra drives his brightly painted truck. All over the city, you can hear his call: "I got oranges and bananas! I got tomatoes, cucumbers, and avocadoes!" His fresh, healthy fruits and vegetables are as colorful as Mardi Gras floats, as green as the St. Charles Streetcar, and as different as the animals at the Audubon Zoo. Taste and tour New Orleans in this colorful story.
