Publisher's Synopsis
Homework so fat it squashes a perfectly good Sunday, the panic of a pop quiz, the injustice of getting called on only when you don't know the answer. And the perfect water fountain prank, the noisy glory of music class, the freedom of recess! Celebrated poet Jack Prelutsky has collected poems from thirteen poets-including himself-that capture everything wonderful and horrible about going back to school.Light-hearted, funny, and oh-so-true, these eighteen poems are impeccably paired with hilarious illustrations from Jane Manning. By the time the lunch bell rings, you'll be laughing so hard, milk will come out of your nose!
