Dinosaur Dinner (With a Slice of Alligator Pie)

Dinosaur Dinner (With a Slice of Alligator Pie) by Lee, Dennis. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780679870098.

For the first time, the poetry of Dennis Lee, the Pied Piper of childrens verse, has been collected in one rousing volume by the inimitable Jack Prelutsky. From food fantasies to schoolyard chants and monster mayhem, Lee really knows how to tickle kids with words. There are quiet poems, rude and rambunctious poems, and some pure nonsense verses that trip off the tongue, begging to be said over and over again. Others capture the attraction of a muddy puddle or the somnolent rhythm of windshield wipers on a rainy day. Theres something for everyone in this wonderful collection of read-aloud or read-alone rhymes and Debbie Tilleys (Riddle-icious) buoyant imaginative watercolors are an open invitation to jump in and join the fun.
