An adorable dog longs to be something other than what he really is until he realizes the value of being himself in this whimsical tale. He ponders being other animals (a zebra, a monkey, an elephant, and of course, a duck) until he figures out those animals each have limitations as well.The prose is written in a style reminiscent of Dr. Seuss and will delight young children. This book has already been used in classrooms to fuel discussion about self-acceptance as well as discussions about different animals and their habitats.The illustrations are simple, yet boldly colored, keeping with the overall whimsical attitude of the book.
