(3) K-3 Illustrated by Melissa Iwai. "If you could be green..." or soft, or fierce, what would you be? A leaf, a breeze, or a dragon? The lilting verse encourages readers to imagine a variety of answers. Cheerful illustrations expand on these ideas and add a humorous dimension to the final stanza that brings the child back to being him- or herself.
