In this book of many poems, the author combines poems that could be real life experiences with fiction and humor. All of the poems in this book are easy for children to understand. The author does a great job of using figurative language that children can relate to in real life situations.

I liked this book because it is funny and realistic at the same time. It also has some of the "gross factor", which children seem to love. I think almost any child would love the poems in this wonderful book.

In the classroom I might use this book when learning about poetry. I think this would be a great way to introduce poetry to children. I may also use it to incorporate a lesson about self esteem.
