"The Great Zandoo and other poems" is a fun, joyful celebration of wonder and discovery as viewed through the eyes of children. From a fantastic dinosaur parade, to a mysterious crystal ball, to a raucous party of toy penguins, the 41 poems and photo illustrations in this gentle 88-page book offer a peek into the often whimsical - and sometimes poignant - imaginations of kids. In "Never Kiss a Bee," we are warned: "Of all the things you shouldn't do, and there are quite a few -- Like swimming with a sack of rocks, or sleeping in your shoes, There are two things I'd avoid, most undeniably: Never hug a rose bush, and never kiss a bee." And what boy or girl has not asked the age-old question: "What Good are Toes?" "What good are toes; nobody knows, And if you asked, they'd tell you so. They're always right inside your shoes, Without a single thing to do." The first published book of poetry by brother and sister Bill and Deb Smith, The Great Zandoo is a collection of stories in rhyme that we hope will both surprise and delight you -- and all children close to you -- for years to come.
