Illustrated by
Graham Ross.
"Alberto had an alligator, / but he didn't have a bathing suit." Turn the page, and Benoît has a bathing suit but no clarinet. No child has what he or she wants, until Zara gives her zamboni to Yanni who gives a yoga mat to Xena and so on back to Alberto. Each humorous acrylic and collage illustration includes a hidden letter.
