Story Title: The Mixed Up Chameleon
Author and Illustrator: Earle Carle
Genre: Fantasy
Character: Chameleon
Summary: The chameleon thought his life was boring, but then he went to the zoo and was fascinated by all the animals. He wished to become a little like each of the wonderful animals he saw. Eventually he became so mixed up that he was too confused to help himself. It was only then that he realized that he could be happy just being himself.
Comments: The children will be entertained by this story as they watch the chameleon change from himself into a different animal. The text is simple, but with the powerful message that you should be yourself. The illustrations are hilarious, as the chameleon takes on different forms. This in one story that should be part of the classroom library. It is appropriate for children age 2 to 10 years old.
