Twenty-two poems, one which introduces readers to this poetry collection's focus, predict what the cars of the future may look like. Some are gigantic while others are large enough to barely fit their drivers. Some ("The Paper Car") are quite disposable while others ("High-Heel Car"--I won't be driving that one) owe their design innovation to women's footwear. There are even cars that look like eggs, hot dogs, and banana splits. The talented poets rely on whimsical word play and imagination for their designs and their rhymes, and the accompanying illustrations, created in pencil and watercolor and then digitally colored, are imaginative companions to the text. As someone who has spent more than her fair share stuck in traffic jams on the way to and from work in New Orleans, I long to buy "Rubber-Band Car," described thusly: "Bouncing, bounding down the road / Like a leaping, beeping toad. / Made from giant rubber bands / (Very pliant in your hands). / It jumps over traffic jams, / And obstructions gently rams" (p. 36). Yep, it sounds like the perfect vehicle for me. It's clear that the two poets were well fueled with humor and imagination as they crafted these humorous poems.
