Collages in festive hues illustrate this story of a chameleon
that learns to change not only his colors but his shape and his
dreams as well. Ages 4-8.
內容簡介:
Except for catching flies and changing colors occasionally,
this chameleon doesn''t find life very exciting. When a surprise
visit to the zoo makes this wistful lizard realize it can change
its shape and size as easily as its color, it ends up wanting to be
like all the animals in the zoo at once--with hilarious results.
