Using his tentacles to hold the brushes, the blowhard squid from I'm the Biggest Thing in the Ocean draws underwater animals (and, mistakenly, draws on them: a gatefold reveals a whale covered in the squid's "mess-terpiece"). The simple, amusing story's use of very few words and bold, bright, mixed-media illustrations will grab readers' attention and keep them laughing.
