Something Extraordinary

(3) K-3 "I wish I could fly! / And breathe underwater." A boy riffs on his impossible wishes; his fulfilled fantasies appear in illustrations of subdued color. His ultimate wish, for "something real!"--he encounters a family of birds singing in a tree--is presented in more vibrant color. Only a junior curmudgeon wouldn't read this book and want to sing along.
