Who Is Melvin Bubble?

32 pp. | Roaring Brook/Porter | August, 2006 | Trade ISBN 1-59643-116-4 $16.95
(3) K-3 As information about Melvin Bubble is gathered from a variety of sources--his mother, his teddy bear, a scaredy-cat zebra--a composite Melvin emerges from the perspectives, before the six-and-a-half-year-old subject weighs in on himself. The book's design includes silly, quirky details, such as a variety of fonts and visual perspectives, making for a lively exploration of identity.
