Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Ideal for fans of Jack Prelutsky and Shel Silverstein, this collection of hilarious poems is perfect for any young reader who likes to read -- and laugh!

This funny poetry book is full of unusual characters: lots and lots of dragons, panda and pangolin musicians, mail-order eggs that hatch dinosaurs (surprise!), ten aliens with a garden-gnome pal, a robot uncle, and a professor who uses his Page Machine to travel to multiple pages within the book. Vikram Madan's ingenious poems take many forms, from limerick to rebus to a fill-in-the-blank poem that offers more than 13.8 billion funny combinations. All feature clever wordplay, impeccable rhythm and rhyme, and riotous punchlines. This is a quirky collection of poems that readers will laugh their way through again and again.

"Warning: this book has dragons, robot uncles, aliens, a combative mosquito and, most dangerous of all, more than 13.8 billion poems, conveniently fit into 64 pages of pure silliness. You may never stop reading!"--Front jacket flap.
