The award-winning author, whose psychology books have been translated in five languages, wrote these marvelous poems over a period of fifty years for her children and grandchildren. Many of them were at the request of the grandchildren who urged "Grammy" to "write a poem about my cat," "about men from Mars," "what happens when you tell a lie" or "write a poem about being jealous of a kid at school."
Funny, weird, clever and sometimes thoughtful poems. Meet the brave little triplets, the philosopher frog, the Moogly Mugfords, and even a six-foot spider.
What could happen if your pet dog turns out to be a grizzly bear, if you play with the dragon, tell a lie, know all the answers to all the questions in the world, or try to tell your friend your funniest joke.
What makes that scary sound at night? See the monsters last fight, hear the cat's dreadful duet and even meet the coolest guy in school.
Or hear a word my mother said.
