A Perfect Name

by Charlene Costanzo

Sweet Briar's parents think she's the sweetest thing in the whole world. But Sweet Briar is a skunk, and she smells like one too. At school, all the other kids make fun of her. No one wants to play with her at recess, and horrible Wormwood Weasel makes up mean songs about her. How can Sweet Briar show them that there's more to her than just her scent? Karma Wilson has written a tender and funny read-aloud that young children will want to hear again...

Whimsical and fun

Mama and Papa Potamus are having a rough time choosing a name for their new baby: there are many names, but which one describes their new child? They must decide by the naming ceremony. LeUyen Pham's drawings are whimsical and a fun embellishment to this story of a baby hippo's new legacy.
