Title: It's passable if you enjoy overly-simple rhyme...
Review: I'm afraid I don't understand what has happened to the art of writing rhyme. I don't mean to offend this author, but I have taught poetry to 5th graders who were capable of writing rhymed (and unrhymed) poems that surpassed those in this book! And this author wins awards (?). Children's poetry in general has hit a low - it is rare to find poems that contain the kind of imagery that makes you shiver, and the new rhymes are unimaginative, not very clever at all. I certainly beleive in having a good laugh with good rhyme, but I'm afraid these don't do it for me (and the kids in my library never check it out)...
