When Spot grows tired of doing tricks in the circus, he decides to turn into another animal. But what kind? An elephant? An elephant is too big. A giraffe? A giraffe is too tall. How about a mouse? Can Spot's friends help him see that the very best thing to be is himself? <i>I Want to Be Somebody New! </i>is a spot-on tale of individuality and friendship. <p/>Originally created by Dr. Seuss, Beginner Books encourage children to read all by themselves, with simple words and illustrations that give clues to their meaning. <p/>Spot changes from elephant to giraffe to mouse, trying to find a new identity, but discovers that every animal shape has its drawbacks. This intelligent, cheerful sequel, with its simple rhyming text, lives up to the reputation of its predecessor.--<i>Publishers Weekly. <br></i><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"This intelligent, cheerful sequel, with its simple rhyming text, lives up to the reputation of its predecessor."<i>--Publishers Weekly</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Robert Lopshire was the illustrator of numerous children's books.
