Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Grade 3–6—British comedian Steve Turner's latest recording is a reading of his very funny book (Lion Pub., 1999). Fans of previous titles—The Day I Fell Down the Toilet and I Was Only Asking (both Lion Pub.)— will be thrilled with these poems which add humor to everyday preteen experiences. Turner addresses such topics as sibling rivalry, secrets, school, friendship, bullying, church, thankfulness, and the weather. Irreverent, sarcastic, and often politically incorrect ("knocking on doors and running away, try getting us if you dare, you won't get us 'les you take the bus, and you can't afford the fare"), these poems will fill a void for middle grade readers. The poet's British accent will entertain listeners, and most British terms will be able to be understood in context. An excellent addition to general poetry collections.—Kirsten Martindale, formerly Menomonie Public Library, WI
