The ending totally ruined this one. What a waste.

A small green inchworm is proud of his skill at measuring anything--a robin's tail, a flamingo's neck, a toucan's beak. Then one day a nightingale threatens to eat him if he cannot measure his song. Children will enjoy the clever inchworm's solution and delight in finding the tiny hero on every page.
