Think big! What Can I Be Today?

In this picture book, Charlie the caterpillar, imagines all of the jobs that he could do.  Does he want to be a doctor?  a rock star? a rent collector? the one who mixes the cement?  The possibilities are endless and cross a wide variety of skill and education levels.

What I liked in this book:  The sense of possibility.  The brightly colored illustrations and print pages that are colorful as well.

What could have used improvement:  The story is told in rhyme but the verses feel a bit awkward and “clunky” to me.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this e-book which encourages young children to dream big.  The opinions are my own.

I love to read, recommend books and open the world of reading to others. I tutor to ensure that the next generation of readers will know the joys of a good book because their reading skills have improved. I am an avid reader, especially of mysteries and fiction. I believe that two of the world's greatest inventions were the public library and eyeglasses!
