Another side-splitting collection of

poetry from beloved children's poet Kenn Nesbitt!

Following up the bestselling collection, My Hippo Has the Hiccups, Kenn Nesbitt dares to go where no poet has gone before, creating a whole host of laugh-out-loud scenarios involving animals doing extreme sports.

Kids love Kenn's clever word play and wonderful imagery. This collection also includes an audio CD of Kenn reading the poems in his inimitable style. And Ethan Long provides the perfect complement to Kenn's poetry with his brilliant line drawings.

Reviews for The Tighty Whitey Spider with Dowloadable Audio File: And More Wacky Animal Poems I Totally Made Up

...they'll be creeping and crawling to get their hands on this collection of zany rhymes. - Children's Book Review First of all, the main little critter is sporting nothing but his tighty whitey underwear. This alone had my kids giggling. - KC Books ...his new book, The Tighty Whitey Spider (with illustrations by Ethan Long) would make me a fan even if I wasn't already one. - Gotta Book The poems aren't dull and boring, they are full of action and fun...If all poetry was this exciting, I'd definitely read more! - Jenns Bookshelves Nesbitt's poems are funny and have a well, wacky off-beat kind of humor that really connects with kids (and their teachers and parents, I might add). - Lit for Kids Yes, they are funny and a little wacky - this book should have you chuckling with smiles. - Homeschool Buzz The Tighty Whitey Spider is exactly the kind of book my daughter would have loved when she was in elementary school. I can't think of a better way to help younger children develop an early appreciation for poetry than reading Nesbitt's poems. - The Mother Daughter Book Club Kenn Nesbitt combines animals and craziness into some wacky poems. - The Brain Lair So many of the poems are funny, but they are also very smart and full of little twists. I know kids will love the surprise endings. I think this really is a book that kids will want to read over and over again -- even those reluctant readers. - Booking Mama It's official: Kenn Nesbitt's poetry is kid- and parent-approved! His 'wacky animal poems' carry the common thread of silly critters in impossible situations - a recipe for laugh-out-loud page-turning fun. - She is too Fond of Books
