非常不同感受的畫風，雖然說的也有變色龍的故事，但畫面豐富又美到像包裝紙。字體特別方正，反倒不大容易讀，對我來說，需要多一點時間：看圖+讀字。

The Orange Splot

Two Cna Toucan

"Slowly, Slowly, Slowly," said the Sloth

From Head to Toe

The Mixed-Up chameleon

Odd Bird Out

Crocodiles Are the Best Animals of All

This was shortlisted for Roald Dahl Funny Prize 2009,

The Tallest of Smalls

You Are Special 作者的新作，因為採用了不同繪者，讀來耳目一新。

the OK book, by Amy Krouse Rosenthal and Tom Lichtenheld

這是今年看到最有創意的圖畫書,OK倒過來看也可以是個小人,
對話是
Hi, how are you?
I'm OK.
I like to try a lot of different things.
I'm not great at all of them,
but I enjoy them just the same.

I'm an OK skipper.
I'm an OK climber.
I'm an OK marshmallow roaster.
I'm an OK tightrope walker.
I'm an OK left fielder.
I'm an OK right fielder.
I'm an OK diver. ... ,

One day, I'll grow up to be really
excellent at something.
I don't know what it is yet...
... but I sure am having fun figuring it out.
The end.
Or is it just the beginning?
當然，色彩、插圖與創意，將這個火星文的演化，傳達許多心理深層的聲音：

我雖然現在什麼都只是OK，但是對什麼都充滿好奇與意願。讓生活的目標變得又寬又廣，什麼都充滿了可能。真希望可以馬上讓書友們看到插畫，充滿了智慧與幽默，那個OK可以手舞足蹈，看完之後，不覺莞薾。
