Funny book! This is a compilation of poems and take-offs on them. Think Weird Al Yankovic as Shakespeare or Lewis Carroll. Some of the take-offs are funny, some are weird, but all are clever. I could see an English teacher using them as an example of copysharing. One of the highlights is a parody of "Jabberwocky," from "Alice Through the Looking Glass" by Carroll.
Since I pride myself on my eggheadedness (is that a word?), I really enjoyed finding poems I already knew and reading the corresponding silly poems. I call that fun, but I also call myself a geek.
