“This quirky Mother Goose book turns convention on its head. Each of the 14 selections contemporizes a traditional rhyme and pairs it with a rebuttal or an aside by a grumpy protagonist. . . . The artwork is lively and fanciful—Humpty rides a skateboard, and Miss Muffet’s plotting spider strums a banjo.” – Kirkus Reviews
“Whimsical, cartoonish acrylic-and-pencil illustrations incorporate playful details and decorative page embellishments, blending classic scenarios and contemporary settings and elements. . . . A playful addition to any poetry section.” – Booklist
“The imaginative poems can tickle the funny bone. . . an excellent choice for writing workshops and classroom prompts.” – School Library Journal
