A Visit From a Book Maker
Kofi Mensah came to our class. He made a book called Chameleon Colors. Our teacher, Ms. Lopez, read it to us.
Kofi wrote the words, so he is the author. He drew the pictures, too, so he is also the illustrator.
His words tell that a chameleon can change color. They tell that it catches bugs with its long tongue.
His pictures show a green chameleon on a branch. They show its eyes looking two ways at once.
