Why Am I? Robert McCarty

Floyd is a happy dog with many friends. One day, though, someone asks Floyd why he is yellow . . . but Floyd had never thought about it! He doesn't know the answer. After all, he isn't a lemon. He isn't a banana. He is a dog.


"Why am I yellow?" he wonders.

Soon Floyd goes on a quest to find the answer, and meets up with many of his friends and other animals along the way. Why Am I? is a great family conversation starter about accepting ourselves and others just as we are, and provides a soothing bedtime read with the kids. For ages 4 and up with an adult's help, or 6 and up for beginning readers.
