“I used special ink on this poem’s last line That some children see and some don’t. If you’re a good child you’ll read it just fine, but----” Do you just LOVE poetry? NO!?!? Do you like poetry? Meh!?! That’s okay, this book is still for you. You’ll visit the island where everyone’s Toby and learn whether grown-ups are better than kids. Ever seen a feud unfold between author and illustrator? Ugly words (and pictures) are exchanged. Do you ever wish your riddles were less satisfying? Do you need to memorize a poem that is 20 lines long (and really like the word ‘avocado’)? Try one of these poems. Give it a shot, how hard can it be?   (Vermont DCF Award nominee, 2018-2019)
