Publisher's Synopsis
Raymond the rabbit doesn't like his long ears. Freddie the fox is upset with his bushy tail. Together, they go on a journey meeting other animals also unhappy about themselves. Over the course of one very special year, Raymond, Freddie, and their friends learn to accept themselves and have fun along the way.
Featured on the Fusion Network program Shade: Queens of NYC, You Look Great! helps young children accept their own uniqueness and embrace differences in others. Accompanied with whimsical illustrations, Robert Wolff's endearing and lyrically repetitive style makes for an ideal bedtime story. As Raymond's circle of friends grows every month, his story helps children develop basic counting skills, learn about the months of the year, recognize animals, and understand fun seasonal activities.
By story's end, twelve special animal friends gather to watch the New Year's fireworks. Having learned to appreciate the very special qualities that brought them together, they are comfortable making positive statements about themselves. From now on, when someone says "You Look Great," the animals know it's true.
