Publisher's Note Taking a look around the sea world in which he lives, a self-centered squid realizes that he is bigger than all his fellow ocean-dwelling friends and soon lets everyone around him know it too in his own boisterous, prideful, egocentric way.
Industry Reviews "The art and concept will make this title's appeal run to quite young audiences...who will relish an ensuing discussion of all the surrounding objects next to which they can be giants." (06/01/2007)
"Clever composition amplifies the squid's size: he's too big to fit in his own book...Sherry's story is a simple, infectious delight, with wonderful comic timing and repetition that will encourage children to chant along." (07/15/2007)
