This gorgeously illustrated picture book from the creator of \u003cem\u003eStellaluna\u003c\/em\u003e sends a timely message to young readers about the importance of loving the skin you're in. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Janell Cannon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Clarion Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/1997\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 48\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.1lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.29h x 10.31w x 0.40d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780152010287\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.4\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.5\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Lower Grade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e14443 \/ Verdi (English)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e 1999 Bluebonnet Awards Winner - Children's\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e 1998 Bookseller's Choice Winner - Picture Book\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e 2001 Georgia Children's Book Award Winner - Picture Storybook\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e 1999 Buckeye Children's Book Award Winner - Grades K-2\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e 1999 North Carolina Children's Book Award Winner - Picture Book\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e 2000 Louisiana Young Readers' Choice Award Winner - Young Readers","brand":"Ripon Bookstore","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44148230848557,"sku":"9780152010287","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0681\/0501\/1245\/files\/img_41a70d03-7184-4968-b251-69b42038986f.jpg?v=1757218075","url":"https:\/\/riponbookstore.com\/products\/verdi-9780152010287","provider":"Ripon Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
