 | Go Hang a Salami! I'm a Lasagna Hog! by Jon Agee
Agee has put both his dry sense of humor and artistic talents to wonderful use in this book of word play. As if the clever palindromes (sentences reading the same both backwards and forwards) weren't enough, the accompanying artwork adds another dimension, turning the somewhat absurd phrases into downright funny cartoons. This book will make readers think, laugh, marvel, and try to make palindromes of their own. AUTHOR: Jon Agee
