Inhaltsangabe:

Visit an upside-down, inside-out world where clams sing, mermaids wear pants, and a rattlesnake makes a tasty breakfast. Kids are sure to clap their feet and howl, "no more!" as they read these ridiculous nonsense poems and glare with glee at the phenominally wacky collage art.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: Lenny Hort, whose books include How Many Stars in the Sky?, a Reading Rainbow Review selection, and the forthcoming The Seals on the Bus lives in New Jersey with his wife, Laaren Brown, and their daughters, Sophie, Irene, and Pheobe.

Mr. Hort notes, "I start a nonsense poem by thinking about something ordinary and then blending it with into its opposite: Tabby dog, Purple oranges. A beast darker than a polar bear. I try to look at the world as if I were an alien who can't quite remember which earthling word goes with which person, place or thing."
