Reviews
In most cases, the titles themselves are hilarious on their own. In the context of the whole illustrative package, however, the jokes rise to another level: one that may involve laughing to the point of pants-wetting, depending upon the strength of the reader's pelvic floor muscles., I am thrilled to see this collection highlight kid's lit mainstays such as vomiting, cockfights, hobos and kidney transplants. Go Gackley!, Will make you long for the simpler more innocent days when we would routinely burn books like this.
