Pity this is out of print...

I discovered Piet Hein's "grooks" 40 years ago. Many of the little poems and drawings amused and enlightened me back then. They still do, to this day. Do grab a book in the series. The only person I can compare Hein's sense of wit and economy would be to Charles Schulz, the creator of Peanuts. A brilliant man.
