Title: Doesn't Work
Review: I'm sorry, but this just doesn't work--not even for the strong of heart. Typically, I love Sierra's work, but I'm disappointed and frustrated that I spent the money for this recommended title. Although one or two of the pieces--"Mary Had a Vampire Bat," "Jill and Jacques," and "Slithery, Dithery, Dock" for example--are clever, with grossly kid-pleasing illustrations, others--like "Billy Bryant" and "Rub-a-Dub-Dub"--have faulty rhythm and rhyme patterns. All in all, this is not a book that I could take into the classroom and share without scaring half of my class and/or facing the wrath of parents.
