Synopsis
Machines!! Washing machines that splash and splosh, cars that cough and click and rattle and whirr, tractors, trains, telephones, and vacuum cleaners -- they are all part of our lives, for better or for worse. Jill Bennett and Nick Sharratt have collaborated once again and the result is a colorful, noisy, funny collection of poems about the mechanical side of life. Even robots and UFO's are included in this easy-to-read and fun-to-look-at anthology of short hymns of praise, frustration, and wonder.

Review
The square book is packed with energy. The pages burst forth with life; Nick Sharratt's pictures throb with activity...offers the reader an easy, dip-in experience both visual and verbal. (Junior Bookshelf)
Cross-cultural, witty and incredibly detailed, the pictures and poems could provide literally hours of reading and conversation. (Good Book Guide)
Book Description
A perfect first poetry book about all kinds of machines
