Description


From the gifted creators of the outrageously popular "The New Kid on the Block" and "Something Big Has Been Here" comes yet another wondrously rich, varied, clever--and always funny--collection of poems destined to become favorites. A host of Prelutsky-Stevenson oddballs and characters people the pages of this zany book, which also includes a backwards poem and a poem that never ends. Full color.

About the Author


Jack Prelutsky was the nation's first Children's Poet Laureate. He has filled more than fifty books of verse with his inventive wordplay, including the national bestsellers Scranimals and The New Kid on the Block. He lives in Washington State.

Praise for A Pizza the Size of the Sun…


“Prelutsky loosens his agile imagination in words, while around the pages cavort Stevenson’s interpretive line drawings, shimmy-shimmying to the beat. Terrific.”
-Kirkus Reviews (pointered review)

“This book should be required reading for those out there who claim they don’t like poetry.”
-School Library Journal (starred review)

“Poetry’s bad boys are back again, teaming up to take another swipe at stuffiness.”
-Publishers Weekly (starred review)

“If a laugh is what’s needed, just hand over the keys and let these two drive.”
-Publishers Weekly (starred review)
