Synopsis

Barry Louis Polisar established a national reputation for his original and satirical songs about real kids and their concerns. From "I Don't Wanna Go To School" to the classic "Don't Put Your Finger up Your Nose", here are Barry's best-known songs printed in clear, bold type with accompanying sheet music and chords. Also included in this 30th anniversary edition are original line drawings by Michael G. Stewart taken from the original book. Newsweek Magazine reported on its original publication: "These could be the glory days of children's music." The Co-Evolution Quarterly declared its author a "clown, minstrel, first-class lunatic and the best kind of hero: outrageous and irreverent all under the license of being irrepressibly funny. Kids-big and little-love him....he's well worth selling all your child psychology books for."
