IT'S ME!

This book captures the fun of dressing up and pretending to be someone other than yourself. Little Patricia becomes a princess, a wicked witch, and a mommy before transforming into herself again. Eric Drachman enlists the help of several musicians, friends, and family members to dramatize this small story. Pleasant musical touches and occasional well-chosen sound effects highlight each costume change, and 4-year-old Sivan Piatigorsky-Roth, who plays Patricia, does a great job with her lines. Children will enjoy this simple story and the fun way it's presented while following along with the book's cheerful illustrations. J.C.G. © AudioFile 2005, Portland, Maine [Published: APR/MAY 05]
