Synopses & Reviews
Eegad, Agee! Not another palindrome book!Well-known author and illustrator Jon Agee has been playing with words again, and now a third collection of clever, absurd, and hilarious reversible phrases is the result. These palindromes and their accompanying cartoons will inspire laughs long after first sight. One may feel compelled to go through the book again backwards -- appropriately palindromically -- to revisit his or her favorites.
Review
"The wordplay is well done [and] the pictures bring out the hilarity in every crazy scene."-Starred,
Booklist "Agee hikes down a curious, always entertaining language byway with a book which, it can be said with perfect justice, readers will enjoy backwards and forwards." --Kirkus Reviews
