If I Was the Sunshine
Julie Fogliano, illustrated by Loren Long
This picture book uses short poetic exchanges to pair elements of nature, creatures, and abstract ideas in unexpected ways. Each sequence begins with a conditional comparison, then turns on a final line that shifts its meaning. Some pairings are playful, such as an apple and a worm, while others are quieter and more contemplative, including silence and sound. Illustrations extend the wordplay through scenes with animals and changing natural settings.
