Reviews made mention of Silverstein, Seuss, Nash, Lear. This reviewer read it on the train and drew startled glances as she chortled, giggled, snorted, guffawed, and rolled her eyes (not noisily, but at that point, the other riders were already staring). Funny and sometimes thought-provoking, sure to delight fans of the above-mentioned poets. And the pictures are good, too.
