DESCRIPTION:
This book is a fantastic tool for sharing literature and language with a humorous and dramatic flare. Deftly animated with Munsinger's distinctive pictures of animals, all 25 poems introduce a familiar phrase and painlessly stretch the vocabulary. For example, when Hope the hyena, a dancer, is too scary when performing as the Sugar Plum Fairy, she is switched…to Faust/And the regions infernal. Fortunately, the text and artwork allow youngsters to enjoy the verse without completely grasping the occasional adult-oriented details. From School Library Journal Kindergarten-Grade 4–Panda-monium reigns in this hilarious and pun-filled book of rhymes. Grown-ups might find some of the humor a bit cheesy, but it is hard not to laugh when geese
Fun My daughter liked this and I found it fun to read. I liked the fact that they were short poems some with puns, others with alliteration.. "Read it again and again" according to Jackie L McKenna. The librarian at school picked this for my son, he wasn't happy at all about it. Now I think we need to send her a thank you note. We've read it every night before bed for a whole week. That's a first. I love this book, my son loves this book. Read it, you will love it too.. Fun-ish to read but words too big for children Ashley Barrett I have a Bachelor's degree and still couldn't understand every word in this book so there's no way that my 14 month old would understand. He got bored quickly with this book (that's a first). However it could be fun to read to an older child just don't expect them to be able to read it for quite a while. The poems were fun and a play on words.
