"Gaugin's original illustrations are attractively rendered in black-line cartoon style with splotches of light green, royal blue, aquamarine, pumpkin, and mustard. The book's appealing cover will engage children, and the poems might prompt them to create their own silly rhymes.-School Library Journal, starred review.



The combination of handwritten, informal verse and Paul Ren� Gauguin's avant garde illustrations has proven to be an irresistible and endlessly delightful combination for children and adults alike. Alive with sound, shape, and color, Hagerup's children's poems are still known by heart by every Norwegian child and collections of her poetry can be found on every child''s bookshelf.

„Ilustratiile originale ale lui Gaugin sunt redate atractiv in stilul desenelor animate pe linie neagra, cu pete de verde deschis, albastru regal, acvamarin, dovleac si mustar. Coperta atragatoare a cartii ii va atrage pe copii, iar poeziile ar putea sa-i determine sa-si creeze propriile rime stupide. -School Library Journal, recenzie cu stea. Combinatia dintre versuri scrise de mana, informale si ilustratiile de avangarda ale lui Paul Ren Gauguin s-a dovedit a fi o combinatie irezistibila si incantatoare la nesfarsit, atat pentru copii, cat si pentru adulti.
