Sid the Squid and the Search for the Perfect Job

(4) K-3 Sid, a squid, tries his tentacles at a variety of jobs--traffic cop, line cook, dog walker--none of which works out. Finally, his friend Alice brings him to a place that could use a marine-cephalopod employee: the aquarium. Humorous and dramatic illustrations from DreamWorks animator Derrick are the book's highlight; the text drags.
