      Další hravá sbírka vtipných básniček pro děti oblíbeného amerického spisovatele, kreslíře a muzikanta. Přes 150 veselých veršů, které pobaví nejen děti. Kratší i delší básně přinášejí nejen údiv a pobavení, ale i množství pouček. Například proč je důležité překračovat praskliny v chodníku, co dělat, když potkáte pidlovokýho pudloka nebo proč ráno není oblékání žádná sranda. Dozvíme se, co dělá hračkožrout v noci, jak to vypadá v Horních Pudlipšoucích a Hadrycuckykůžích, a prozkoumáme všelijaké bláznivé představy a situace.

      Sbírka básní Jen jestli si nevymejšlíš představuje autora jako velkého humoristu, který si dokáže hrát nejen s jazykem, ale i s ilustracemi a z obojího vytváří harmonický, precizně vypointovaný celek.

      The Missing Piece
    • Last night, while I lay thinking here, Some Whatifs crawled inside my ear And pranced and partied all night long And sang their same old Whatif song: Whatif I flunk that test? Whatif green hair grows on my chest? Whatif nobody likes me? Whatif a bolt of lightning strikes me? . . . Here in the attic of Shel Silverstein you will find Backward Bill, Sour Face Ann, the Meehoo With an Exactlywatt, and the Polar Bear in the Frigidaire. You will talk with the Broiled Face, and find out what happens when someone steals your knees, you get caught by the Quick-Digesting Gink, a mountain snores, and they’ve put a brassiere on the camel. With 12 never-before-published poems, here is a special edition of this beloved poetry collection, from the creator of Where the Sidewalk ends and Falling Up.
