(3) K-3 Pezzettino (Italian for "little piece"), an orange square, "was small and surely must be a little piece of somebody else, he thought." When he discovers that he is himself a collection of smaller pieces, he cries out happily "I am myself!" Lionni's collage and crayon illustrations graphically portray being small in a big world.
