Customer Reviews

We love his books!

My daughter (7) and I just love Bruce Lansky's books. The poems are truly funny. It's fun to hear her laugh when we read them. I would definitely recommend this book.

Good Laughs

This is an awesome book of Poetry for children!!!! I, as and adult love to read it too. There's a lot of good laughs for you and your children. It's not a huge book, so it's not overwhleming for a child and inexpensive as well. Worth the buy, worth the laugh!

Kid Appeal

As a teacher I am constantly trying to find ways to engage my students in writing. My students can't get enough of Mr. Lansky's work. It has inspired children to write who have extreme difficulty doing so! It's a must have in a classroom and a great book to have in the home!!!

I liked it! But if you want to see for yourself....

I really liked this book and was surprised that all the reviewers did not.

Very funny!

Finally, a book my kids can't put down. My 8 and 10 year old love these funny poems. They read them over and over again and like to share their favorites with their friends. They've even been inspired to write some of their own poetry.
