Attention Bug Lovers, October 17, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Locust Pocus: Poems to Bug You (Hardcover)
Attention Bug-Lovers! Here is a great poetry book for you. McKelvey has written 26 short buggy poems full of alliteration, puns and rythmn. The poems are potrayed with creative typsetting to accentuate the meaning. The illustrations by Egielski are the perfect embodiement of the creepy crawly critters. The bugs are big and bright and have such character. Both my four year old and my 11 year old loved this book. Having lived in Florida, I especially appreciated the poem about the roachs that "Roam through the dishes." Great fun for everyone.

My 5 and 8 year olds loved it and so did I. The wonderful little poems and the appropriate gross pictures were the perfect mix. A great book for kids and dads!

Watch Out, May 17, 2002

This book may have great poetry, but the imagry was enough to scare my toddler. Although beautifully illustrated, the images are a bit much - especially the one of the spider webs & spiders covering the boy's bed while he is sleeping. This is definitely a book for older kids, unless you want a book that will give your toddler nightmares!
