Take "Jellyfish Stew", for example: "You're soggy, you're smelly, / you taste like shampoo, / you bog down my belly / with oodles of goo, / yet I would glue noodles / and prunes to my shoe, / for one oozy spoonful / of jellyfish stew." Poems about greedy grannies, exploding Bloders and hypothetical situations such as having your nose unfortunately situated between your toes are guaranteed to delight you and your kids. Quirky, surprising and always delightful, Prelutsky's poems make us wish we'd grown up with his books ourselves. Illustrator James Stevenson's loose pen-and-ink sketches are lively and fluid, waltzing along perfectly with Prelutsky's playful poetry. Once you and your children have howled your way through, you'll be happy to discover that this talented pair has created two other meaty collections, including Something BIG Has Been Here and A Pizza the Size of the Sun.
