Everyone knows that chameleons are the best at fitting in. But Leon is an exception. Leon is neon! In fact, he's so bright that he keeps all the other chameleons awake at night. Poor Leon is lonely, so he goes off in search of somewhere he won't be a nuisance. In this delightful interactive book filled with vibrant neon artwork, children can help Leon on his journey by counting his steps, sending him to sleep, and giving him lots of reassurance when he's feeling down. But will he ever find a place where he can fit in?

Industry Reviews

Opportunities to learn colors and numbers abound. Best of all, empathetic preschoolers will realize through their interactions with Leon that sometimes, we just need a little time to find our people and our places in the world. This brilliant, heartwarming gem helps tots develop intellectually and emotionally...Interactive reading at its best.
--Kirkus Reviews

In a second picture book, a maladapted chameleon is stuck in a predicament that brings to mind Raymond Chandler's brilliant line about a fellow looking "about as inconspicuous as a tarantula on a slice of angel food cake." For the protagonist of "Neon Leon" (Nosy Crow, 22 pages, $14.99), the problem is color. In Britta Teckentrup's bold illustrations, Leon stands out in electric orange against the gentler greens, grays and blues of the world. "Oh dear," writes Jane Clarke in this chatty tale for 2- to 5-year-olds, "Leon's so bright, he's keeping all the other chameleons awake! What a lot of grumpy chameleons!" Will Leon find his place in the world? (Well, yes, but where?).
