☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis Level 3 Toon Books collection presents Frank Cammuso and Jay Lynch's whimsical tale of Otto the cat, who wishes for his favorite color to take over the world—only to discover the unexpected consequences of a monochrome life. The easy-to-read comic format makes it an engaging early reader, blending humor and a gentle lesson about appreciating variety.
In "Chapter One: My Favorite Color!", Otto’s world takes a vibrant turn when a mischievous genie grants his wish—turning everything orange. But when Aunt Sally Lee, the new lamp owner, wishes to undo the change, the genie flips the script with a splash of blue. With pizza-colored chaos and a lesson in color diversity, Otto learns that even his favorite shade isn’t the only one worth celebrating. Written by Jay Lynch and illustrated by Frank Cammuso, this playful tale brings a splash of whimsy to a single, unforgettable day.
When Otto’s aunt Sally Lee sends him a mysterious lamp, he’s surprised to find a genie inside—ready to grant one wish. With orange as his favorite color, Otto doesn’t hesitate: he wishes everything would turn orange.
In "Chapter Two: Be Careful What You Wish For!", Otto finds the orange world isn’t all sunshine and citrus—orange pork chops are a turn-off, orange milk is a shock, and traffic jams are everywhere thanks to orange traffic lights. When things get too much, he turns to Aunt Sally Lee for help, and she’s got a plan.
In "Chapter Three: A New Wish," Aunt Sally Lee claims the lamp for a nickel and makes a wish to undo Otto’s previous one—only for the mischievous genie to turn everything blue instead. When Otto orders pizza and declares blue toppings unacceptable, the genie obliges, restoring the world to its proper colors and leaving Otto with a newfound appreciation for more than just orange.
