Fins, Fluff and Other Stuff

(4) PS Illustrated by Bruno Merz. "If I were made of scales and fins, / with tangled seaweed hair, / I'd have to leave my fishy friends / to swim back up for air." In a series of rhymes, a boy hypothesizes life as something other than human. The bouncy rhymes and friendly art won't win prizes for originality, but the happy-to-be-me message is proclaimed effectively.
