Customer Reviews

Steamrollers! Steamrollers!

Every child has some word or phrase that becomes *his* for a short time. For my little guy at fifteen months old, it's "Steamrollers!"Delightful art, wonderful execution, and a dollop of Seussian scansion ("seventh-eighths riot and one-quarter zoo" could have come from the Doctor). Only brevity keeps this from being a five-star selection -- boy & I both wanted MORE.Bravo Tim for a great piece of work.

hilarious

This is one of the funniest childrens books I have read. My daughter loves having me read it to her, and I enjoy it just as much. I highly recommend it!

Tim's Talent Continues!

Tim continues to produce wonderful children's literature. This book of poetry reminded me of the style of Shel Silvertein. Tim's artwork is as valuable as his words - as usual. I recommend not only this book - but all Tim's books. They have humor in words and detailed art that will entertain and entertain while fueling the imagination!

Good Poetry for Kids

I just saw an advance copy of this great poetry book for kids! In the tradition of A.A. Milne, but energetic and fun-packed for today's generation.
