"The poet's apparent preference for shorter forms may encourage reluctant readers to stay the course and inexperienced writers to stretch their language skills.

"Simultaneously a book of poems and a primer on poetic craft . . . An excellent addition to poetry collections, this volume will excite and engage, and--most importantly--it will empower children to write poems of their own."--School Library Journal

"Teachers will no doubt love these instructional aspects of the book, but children will appreciate the amusing poems themselves . . . With kid-friendly subjects like pets, school, and family, and colorful cartoony illustrations, readers are sure to find plenty to tickle their funny bone. Reviewer Rating: 4"--Children's Literature
