Hilarious and unique.
I really like the poem the perils of breakfast but my favourite poem is burger tip.
I would recommend it to anyone who likes learn new things.
I loved this book.
The funniest poem I think the rise of the cabbage and the sausage in the bad habits poem.
Refreshing comic poems to be read aloud to class or alone for pleasure.
Hilarious book of poetry which has kept all our Year 1-4 classes laughing and entertained. We have made lots of Advice-A-Trons, had lots of rich discussions about language (There's nacht a lacht I can say about a yacht...) and admired the amazing illustrations which add to the overall sense of ridiculous and funny. Highly recommended.
