A chameleon tries on other identities

A small green chameleon wishes for qualities it sees in other animals, from a flamingo’s appearance to a fox’s intelligence and a seal’s humor. As it changes size, shape, and color, the story explores comparison, self-acceptance, and the appeal of being oneself. Eric Carle’s board-book edition is described as having interactive art and sturdy pages sized for small hands, making the physical format part of its appeal for very young children sharing a book with an adult.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Very young children, especially those in the 0–3 age group
  • Families seeking a board book about self-acceptance
  • Children who enjoy animal characters and interactive art

From Eric Carle, the New York Times bestselling author of The Very Hungry Caterpillar and The Grouchy Ladybug, comes a colorful and inventive book about a changing chameleon that wants to be a little bit of everything.

There once was a small green chameleon that wished to be handsome like a flamingo, smart like a fox, and funny like a seal. But with each transformation in size, shape, and color, the chameleon learns that maybe being yourself is best of all!

The Mixed-Up Chameleon is sure to delight little readers with its interactive art, funny antics, and heartwarming message. This board book edition is the perfect size for small hands and features sturdy pages.
