Synopsis
A collection of more than 150 whimsical poems is accompanied by black-pen illustrations and features such zany characters as Genny Glubber, who's fat like blubber; Mr. Giles, who has seven smiles; and little-naughty-nasty Ned, who glued his brother to the bed. Reprint.

Review
The 150-plus poems and drawings collected in Douglas Florian's Bing Bang Boing speak to children's great fascinations, from the gleeful disgust of eating bugs to the jittery unrest of bumping--perhaps one day--into an unexpected monster. Yet it is Florian's creative wordplay that truly distinguishes this text. Take "Commas," for example:
Do commas have mommasBing Bang Boing is officially recommended for ages nine to 11, but there is plenty in here for children as young as five years, particularly thanks to Florian's exuberant black-and-white line drawings. While a few of the poems seem slanted for adults ("Welcome to suburbia / where life is so superbia"), the majority of this work will charm and engage a wide range of youngsters. With its goofy, fun-to-say title and its wealth of poetic experience inside, this playful collection is certain to become a popular family favourite along with Florian's well-loved Insectlopedia. (Ages five and older) -- Jean Lenihan
Who teach them to pause
Who comfort and calm them
And clean their sharp claws?
Who tell them short stories
of uncommon commas
And send them to bed
in their comma pajamas?
Review
"From the sunlit yellow of its jacket to the humorous tone of its verse, this should prove a popular choice for poetry shelves." - Booklist "Tart, clever, inventive poems such as these are one of the best ways for kids to explore the wonderful flavours of language" - The Bulletin"
