The Whingdingdilly by Bill Peet

Scamp, a farm dog, is tired of being a dog.  When his owner, Orvis, makes a hurtful comment about him, he runs away into the woods.  There he encounters a witch who can read his thoughts and transforms him into a Whingdingdilly!
A great book about being content with how one is made.
Some fun nonsense words to read.
Mr. Peet writes in a captivating manner that  appeals to a wide age span.
Strategies: predicting, inferring, asking questions
