- content: In a winning combination, John Guth has made folksy arrangements of Jack Prelutsky's poems. Prelutsky's poetry is engaging and memorable by itself, and the addition of toe-tapping music and Prelutsky's own strong vocals will have listeners humming and singing "The Frogs Wore Red Suspenders" and "Peanut Peg and Peanut Pete" all day long. This collection is perfect for the preschool and younger elementary set, and a fun choice for family listening. Prelutsky's got rhythm, and he's got music. Who could ask for anything more? A.F.

Starred review from February 7, 2005
In these 28 poems that alight everywhere from Tuscaloosa to El Paso, Winnemucca to the Grand Canyon, "the rhymes flow easily, set to a consistently bouncy beat that makes reading them aloud effortless," wrote PW
. "The watercolors exude a puckish charm well matched to the nimble word play." Ages 5-up.

Starred review from November 26, 2001
Prelutsky (Awful Ogre's Awful Day) trades his usual giddy hilarity for a tone of gentler glee in this collection of verse. Loosely knit together by U.S. geography, the 28 poems alight everywhere from Tuscaloosa to El Paso, Winnemucca to the Grand Canyon. In the Pacific Northwest, for instance, "Seattle is lovely,/ but I cannot lie—/ without an umbrella/ it's hard to stay dry." The rhymes flow easily, set to a consistently bouncy beat that makes reading them aloud effortless ("Baby in a high chair,/ baby in a bib,/ baby in a stroller,/ baby in a crib"). Mathers's (Lottie's New Beach Towel) watercolors exude a puckish charm well-matched to the nimble wordplay, and she lets loose a menagerie of her trademark sprightly animals, often fleshing out the situations in the poems. In "Carpenter, Carpenter," for instance, a mouse couple enlists the help of a builder to construct their house for the price of a cheese; the artist completes the tale by showing the couple, now with two additions, enjoying the reward with the carpenter at their kitchen table, their completed home emulating the shape and color of the prize cheese. In another, "There Was a Tiny Baker," Mathers chronicles the baker's day from sun-up to day's end, as he shares a cookie with his pet mouse. There's plenty of zip in this nifty outing. Ages 5-up.
