Written & illustrated by Bethanie Murguia
Turning five feels just like four. Will anything change?
Fritz eagerly anticipates his fifth birthday, starting with pancakes and new sneakers. Yet, as he peers into the mirror, he sees no change—no wiggly teeth, no difference from being four. Despite the birthday crown and songs at school, he wonders if he'll ever truly feel five. Join Fritz on his journey of self-discovery and the subtle magic of growing up.
Fritz’s 5th birthday starts off well when he eats all five of his birthday pancakes and gets brand-new sneakers that fit perfectly, but when he peeks in the mirror, he looks just the same as he did when he was 4 years old—and not even a single tooth is wiggling!
