Mismatched Alexander by Isaac Andres
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Just finished reading MISMATCHED ALEXANDER by Isaac Andres. Isaac's delightful picture book tells the story of a precious frog, Alexander, who is not green, but instead colorful, and none of his colors match. The book follows Alexander's plight, as he is made fun of and ostracized for being different, until a wise frog helps him find a comfort level within himself. Alexander is every child who has been teased for being different, but learns to find his or her way. The beauty of this book is in the superb rhyming diction, and the color-of the illustrations and the language. It is a sheer delight. Way to go, Isaac, for writing such a good book, certain to charm, entertain and also help children discover their way in the world!
