Lionni, Leo.

Inch by inch

New York : Alfred A. Knopf, 2010.

Call No.: JJ LIO

Summary: The little green inch worm was good at measurement. He could

measure everything such as robin’s tail, flamingo’s neck, toucan’s beak,

heron’s legs and even the whole hummingbird. One day, a nightingale

asked the inch worm to measure his song. If he refused to do so, he would

eat him. Do you know how this smart inch worm escapes to safety?

Borrow the book and find the answer now.
