I read this with my nephew. We started off just reading a few before bedtime which turned into reading them as soon as he got home from school. We both enjoyed the poems and the artwork was amazing. He brought the book in to share with his class and even the teacher loved the book. The poems are silly but in a cute way. Excellent book!! ( )

Let me start off by saying this is a beautiful hardback book. On the inside there is a delightful collection of poems with illustration that are really cute. I sat down with my granddaughter and started reading this to her and she loved it and so did I. This is a book that she and I will share over and over again. Would make a wonderful gift for any occasion. ( )

A beautiful hardcover collection of illustrated poems on par with Silverstein in their whimsical nature centered around the imaginations and shenanigans of children. I was cheered greatly throughout the whole book and know I will read it over and over and over again, and definitely plan to place it among other such delights on my future children's bookshelves!
