Some Kids Are Dolphins

Some kids are dolphins. Some kids are bears. . . . What kind of creature are you? This joyful picture book from a New York Times bestselling author is the ideal gift for every child who loves to pretend they’re an animal—while still being fully themselves, of course.

In an affectionate ode to the animal kingdom, prolific poet David Elliott invites readers to declare their counterpart among nature’s marvelous creatures. Are you slow like a sloth? Light like a moth? Fast like a cheetah or BIG like an elephant? Do you soar over the mountains or swing in the trees? Whether the reader just gets a hoot out of exploring the world of animals or is obsessed with imitating them, this rhyming read-aloud offers immense potential for impersonations, complete with howling, honking, and hissing. Roar!
