Spirited little George wants to be many things: a bird with wings, a whale with a wide tail, a monkey with long and strong arms, and a lion with a golden mane. But at the end of the day, George just wants to be a little boy, to be cuddled tightly in his mother’s arms, and to listen to stories. The repetitive prose storyline, along with its lively and dynamic illustrations, make it easy to follow and simple to remember. It appeals to parents who want their children to be free-spirited and adventurous and, at the same time, to be themselves.
