"A generous collection with a distinctly upbeat tone, this
gives a taste of the best poets writing for children over the last
several decades. Lobel''s drawings imbue the whole with action and

meet home, school, and library needs."--starred

關於作者：
Jack Prelutsky was born in Brooklyn, New York. He attended New
York City Public Schools and studied voice at the High School of
Music and Art. He enrolled in Hunter College in Manhattan but left
soon after "to become a beatnik". Jack has been a cab driver, a
busboy, a photographer, a furniture mover, a potter, and a folk
singer. He enjoys bicycling, playing racquetball, woodworking and
cooking. He lives in Washington State with his wife Carolynn and a
vast collection of poetry books and frogs in every shape, size, and
form -- except living! There was a time when Jack couldn''t stand
poetry. In grade school he had a teacher who left him with the
impression that poetry was the literary equivalent of liver. He
rediscovered poetry in his twenties, and he decided that he would
write about things that kids really cared about, and that he would
strive to make poetry delightful. He has been writing poetry for
more than twenty years and has published more than three dozen
books for children.
