Great new kids' book! submitted by crazypockets on June 24, 2012, 4:40pm This may be my new favorite kids' book...at least for the moment. The summer game brought me here, and as a member of the "Weird Al generation," I was intrigued enough to check it out. It's so cute! It's a great answer for the rest of us to the question, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" The illustrations are fun and engaging, and the rhyming is well done and funny (of course!). This would be a great picture books for boys, and girls will love it too!
