Chrissie’s Shell
By Brooke Keith, illustrated by Mary Bausman
Overview: Chrissie is a little turtle with a big problem: she believes her shell is empty. She spends her days comparing herself with other animals in the forest and imagining what it would be like to be them, only to end up disappointed again and again when she finds she cannot transform herself into someone new.
