Don't Call Me Sidney

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Renata Gallio. Sidney the pig loves to write poems for his friends. When he realizes that nothing rhymes with his own name, he changes it to "Joe." Sidney's new name takes some getting used to, and ultimately his mother's sadness makes him rethink the switch. The solution? A "rhyme-able nickname": Sid. Sidney's verses are bumpy, but the acrylic illustrations have loads of personality.
Reviewer: Carrie Harasimowicz Sullivan
