This exciting collection is full of Jumblies and dragons; wise old women and baby brothers; dogs, horses, and cats that howl at the moon. There are trains and talking tables; schools and scary houses; moms, dads, bears, and crocodiles. The choice of poets ranges from Lewis Carroll, W. H. Auden, and Walter de la Mare to John Agard, Charles Causley, and Ted Hughes. And throughout the book, the beautiful illustrations complement the liveliness and atmosphere of the poems.
