Kindergarten-Grade 2—The imaginative young boy in this marvelous story has some unusual answers to a frequently asked question. The youngster, clad in overalls and a cap, dreams of being "a pumpkin grower," "puddle stomper," or "silly-joke teller." Both the lilting text and amusing watercolor and acrylic illustrations are full of energy. The boy runs and skips from one adventurous goal to the next, accompanied by rabbits, frogs, and other little creatures. His animal friends gaze at him through the window of a homey kitchen in his future role as a "mixing-bowl licker." When he imagines being a "baby-sis soother," the smiling child is dressed in an elephant costume, and his sister laughs. In the end, on a four-page foldout, the boy decides, "So many jobs!/They're all such fun—/I'm going to choose…/EVERY ONE!" This outstanding book pairs well with Leonid Gore's When I Grow Up (Scholastic, 2009) or Jeanie Franz Ransom's What Do Parents Do? (…When You're Not Home) (Peachtree, 2007).—Linda L.

Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
As we all know most youngsters have vivid imaginations. They can think of all sorts of things, and often may wonder about growing up. What will they be when they are adults - a fireman? A nurse? A soldier? A model?
I CAN BE ANYTHING is an affirming, encouraging book reminding young ones that the possibilities are limitless. They can be anything they want to be. Jerry Spinelli's lilting rhymes answer the question, "What will I be when I grow up" with such imaginative suggestions as "Pumpkin grower, Dandelion blower;" "Deep-hole digger, Lemonade swigger," and more.
Many will elicit smiles while all remind of the infinite possibilities life holds.
Bold colored exuberant illustrations by Jimmy Liao accompany each rhyme, always emphasizing the joy in whatever is being done.
I CAN BE ANYTHING is a fun book that youngsters will choose to return to again and again.
