In this tasty collection, J. Patrick Lewis displays the breadth and depth of his talent, giving readers of any and every sensibility something to make them laugh out loud. He stirs humor into an astonishing array of subjects—from animals to school to dragons to food. And he delivers them in a remarkable variety of forms, including riddles, limericks, nonsense rhymes, parodies, anagrams, story poems, haiku, and more. Baked in Lewis’s brilliant imagination and sprinkled with Matthew Cordell’s warm, witty drawings, the result is a collection to delight the taste buds.

A great poetry book for younger readers around 1st or 2nd grade. I would keep this in my classroom as I like how it‘s silly and light hearted.

There is a poem that is dedicated to Shel Silverstein on page 121 that references the Giving Tree and I thought it was a great addition to the book.

This is a great book with a TON of poems. Some are short and some are long so there is a variety of reading levels. The illustrations are simple, yet effective. A good book for a student with down time.

This poem has great rhythm and I think kids would pick up on it very well. It flows very naturally and is easy to read. This has lots of plays on words and alliterations and onomatopoeia.
