VERDI by Janell-Cannon
Deep in the jungle where all the pythons are green, Verdi is born a little bit different. This gorgeously illustrated picture book from the creator of Stellaluna sends a timely message to young readers about the importance of loving the skin you're in. Young Verdi doesn't want to grow up big and green. He likes his bright yellow skin and sporty stripes. Besides, all the green snakes he meets are lazy, boring, and rude. When Verdi finds a pale green stripe stretching along his whole body, he tries every trick he can think of to get rid of it--and ends up in a heap of trouble. Despite his efforts, Verdi turns green, but to his delight, he discovers that being green doesn't mean he has to stop being himself.
JANELL CANNON is the award-winning author and illustrator of picture books about unappreciated and fascinating creatures. Some of her books--including Crickwing, Verdi, and the beloved bestseller Stellaluna--feature characters that can be found in the natural world. The Fuzzheads in Trupp and Little Yau often are thought to be imaginary, but no one really knows for sure. Ms. Cannon lives in Southern California.
