I was looking for a book for my nephew, and came across this title. I don't really know anything about kids, and am absolutely clueless about what they enjoy.My nephew and I both thoroughly enjoyed reading all the poems together, and couldn't stop laughing the entire time.I highly recommend buying this book!

I really do not know how to put into words eloquently the way my mind was forever changed by delving into Mr Todd Dillard's exquisite world of wackiness. People this is a book of POETRY not a collection by a writer who assumed that writing children's poetry could be done by anyone with a pen and a free weekend. This is ART! The ideas are insane and wonderful, it just kept getting sillier and more wonderful! Evi whose head is a Tv, is not just an adorable idea but the poem is great. The girl is sent to the corner as children are sometimes, but in Evi's case it is so the teacher can watch her television program! Talk about laugh out Loud! This collection by Todd Dillard is fresh , it's florid, it's funky! I love it.

If you loved Shel Silverstein, it will be easy to enjoy this book. Super quick read and beautiful illustrations to look at, it is a perfect addition to a child's book collection or an adult who wants to revisit some of their childhood feelings for 30 minutes or so. This has some beautiful little nuggets that even those who aren't a big fan of poetry will love and find a grain of life truth in them.

I've been searching for this books for months, an honestly strange children's poetry devoid of the didactic high-pitched "adult" voice. Highly recommended for those children with fertile imaginations, which is all children.

Too cute. These poems are ideal for lazy breakfast reading or luncheons on the patio. We love to read over our meals and kiddo has really enjoyed Where the Windwalk Begins.I personally loved Airlephant, mostly because I have a ridiculously large soft spot in my soul for all things regarding elephants. Kiddo's ears perked up the most, however for Flock of Flying Carpets, which I admit is pretty awesome. The alliteration of that particular poem fascinates little people, and her eyes lit up with delight at hearing the same sounds over and over again. We've been working on our phonics lately and you could see the recognition of certain letter's sounds all over her face.The poems are really fun and the illustrations are equally so. I was pleased with how well paired the illustrator was to the over all vibe of the book. Sometimes you can have a great illustrator and a really great storyteller or poet, but they don't necessarily make the best pairing, but these two seemed pretty in tune to each other. Spunky and very light heart-ed, moms and dads everywhere should keep this title in their personal library stock.Read more reviews at http://anakalianwhims.wordpress.com/
