I'm Just No Good at Rhyming

Meet Chris Harris, the 21st-century Shel Silverstein! Already lauded by critics as a worthy heir to such greats as Silverstein, Seuss, Nash and Lear, his hilarious debut poetry collection molds wit and wordplay, nonsense and oxymoron, and visual and verbal sleight-of-hand in masterful ways that make you look at the world in a whole new wonderfully upside-down way. With enthusiastic endorsements from bestselling luminaries as Lemony Snicket, Judith Viorst, Andrea Beaty, and many others, this entirely unique collection offers a surprise around every corner: from the ongoing rivalry between the author and illustrator, to the mysteriously misnumbered pages that can only be deciphered by a certain code-cracking poem, to the rhyming fact-checker in the footnotes who points out when "poetic license" gets out of hand. Adding to the fun: Lane Smith, bestselling creator of beloved hits like It's a Book and The Stinky Cheese Man and Other Fairly Stupid Tales, has spectacularly illustrated this extraordinary collection with nearly one hundred pieces of appropriately absurd art. It's a mischievous match made in heaven!

Faceti cunostinta cu Chris Harris, Shel Silverstein din secolul 21! Deja laudat de critici ca un mostenitor demn al unor mari ca Silverstein, Seuss, Nash si Lear, colectia sa de debut hilara poezie formeaza spirit si joc de cuvinte, prostii si oximoron, precum si vizualitate si verbalitate in moduri magistrale care te fac sa arati la lume intr-un mod cu totul nou minunat cu capul in jos.
