Magnus Maximus, A Marvelous Measurer by Pelley, Kathleen T.. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780374347253.

Magnus Maximus is a marvelous measurer. He measures wetness and dryness, nearness and farness, and everything in between. When a lion escapes from a traveling circus, Magnus and his trusty measuring tape come to the rescue. Now a hero, all is well until the day Magnus accidentally breaks his glasses, and he sees―for the first time―that hes been missing out on lifes simple pleasures. Kathleen T. Pelleys marvelous tale and S. D. Schindlers inspired illustrations remind us that the best things in life are not meant to be measured, but treasured.
