Illustrated by
Jules Feiffer.
More than anything else, Henry wants a tail. A kindly tailor sews him one, but alas, it won't wag. Henry finds a battery in New York's Battery Park and attaches it to his rump. Now his tail wags, but will Henry be able to control it? Dynamic pencil and watercolor illustrations add humor and extend the story of Henry's growing self-acceptance.
