I Wish I Were a Howler Monkey

(4) K-3 Looking Glass Library: I Wish I Were... series. Illustrated by Gabhor Utomo. Subdued illustrations show children imagining life as the title mammals. Although they think of lots of up-sides, they realize they'd miss things about their own habits (e.g., having friends, playing). The texts are in rhyme, which makes the incorporation of facts a stretch in places. Glos. Review covers these Looking Glass Library: I Wish I Were... titles: I Wish I Were a Furry Ferret, I Wish I Were a Howler Monkey, and I Wish I Were a Humpback Whale.
