Is it My Birthday?

This is a story of a young boy that anxiously anticipates his birthday. He begins his journey on a Sunday afternoon at the zoo with his family. A zookeeper comments on how well he pretends to be a flamingo and the boy responds joyfully that he is almost five years old. The story continues through each day of the week until he cannot wait any longer. On Saturday he makes a wish while throwing a penny into the fountain. His wish is for his birthday to be here "NOW!" Finally it is Sunday again. He wakes up to the sight of colorful balloons; his birthday is finally here!Galt, Jill Portugal is the author of 'Is it My Birthday?', published 2004 under ISBN 9781413726824 and ISBN 1413726828.
