Anthony, the Perfect Monster — Angelo DeCesare

Illustrated in full color. Anthony always does everything he's supposed to, from eating his spinach to wearing his raincoat--even when it's not raining! Then one day, Anthony cracks from the strain and, with one hiccup, becomes a horrible monster who rants, raves, and won't wear his raincoat no matter how nicely he's asked. When he turns back into a little boy, Anthony discovers that his family and friends still love him, because whether he's a perfect kid or a perfect monster, he's always perfectly himself.
