| Publisher Description: Surprise, absurdity, and laugh-out-loud humor are the hallmarks of award-winning, New York Times-bestselling author Andy Griffiths's books for kids--and this time, he has a few bad things on his mind... Following in the footsteps of The Cat on the Mat is Flat and The Big Fat Cow That Goes Kapow, Andy Griffiths turns the silliness up a few notches in this collection of stories for 8-to-12-year-olds featuring a vast array of very ridiculous and very bad things: zombie kittens, rocket-stealing ants, and of course, killer koalas from outer space This very silly book filled with very bad things will make even very reluctant readers laugh very, very hard--maybe until their brains explode * Hilarious collection of rude, lewd and crude poems, jokes and cautionary tales. --Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review |
