(2) K-3 Illustrated by Christopher Myers. "I looked in the mirror / and what did I see? / A real handsome dude / looking just like me." The poem-text has swagger and bounce as the narrator celebrates everything that makes him who he is. Collage illustrations present Matisse-like cutouts of human figures in hot, strong colors against almost abstractly cropped photos that suggest a world brimming with riches.
