It features artwork by Maggie Smith and is intended for children ages three to six. In the book, a boy is encouraged to perform his daily tasks by being told to imagine how difficult those tasks would be if he were an animal. When he does not want to get dressed, for example, his caretaker tells him to be thankful he is not an octopus, which would need to put eight legs into its pants, instead of just two.
