Behold the Bold Umbrellaphant
And Other Poems

In Behold the Bold Umbrellaphant, the master of silliness introduces oddly wonderful and uniquely skilled creatures who are combinations of animals and objects. You will meet the Ballpoint Penguins, the Clocktopus, the tearful Zipperpotamuses, a Spatuloon, and a Tubaloon! In What a Day It Was at School! there are poems about homework (oh dear!), music, a field trip (hooray!), science, spelling (gasp!), gym, and a noisy mistake (oops!). What a funny, outrageous, exciting, incredible, silly, extraordinary day it was at school! In Scranimals, you will find the fragrant Rhinocerose and the cunning Broccolions, and, if you are very, very quiet, you'll spot the gentle, shy Pandaffodil. So put on your pith helmet and join Jack Prelutsky for an adventure you will never forget!
