This book is guaranteed to make you and your kids laugh!The children's rhymes in this book were originally created to make the author's children laugh. They laughed and laughed and insisted on showing the rhymes to their friends. Their friends enjoyed them as well. Soon, an entire book of wacky and zany rhymes had been created and was making the rounds from family to family. This is that book, with a few illustrations thrown in for good measure. In this book, your kids will meet a boy who finds a tiger in his closet, a girl who can transform into anything she wants, the dog who kept on growing and Wild Wonky Wilbur, the boy who couldn't stop running. It's a world where cats can change the TV channel, animals learn karate and monkeys keep secrets.I hope you enjoy these poems and rhymes as much as we have!
