Tales of Whimsy, Verses of Woe

Beschreibung

"Quite possibly the most dangerous book of poetry ever written. Do you dare? It's so good it will make you sneeze. What becomes of a girl who absolutely detests the color green? What about a king who joins a punk band? And the little boy who calls up God on the telephone? Monsters, bears, wizards, and talking vegetables--This book has something for everyone. Winner of the prestigious Baldersquash Medal, which honors the very best in highfalutin nonsense."--Publisher's description.
