PreS-Gr 3-- An engaging collection of 70 nonsense verses by that most prolific of poets, A. Nonny Mouse (long misspelled Anonymous due to a fateful typo). Prelutsky, a fellow poet and unabashed admirer, has compiled (along with four of his own creations) some of her most playful rhymes, limericks, quips, and chants--all with a touch of the wacky, the way-out, and the wonderful. Selections are illustrated with Drescher's signature watercolors highlighted with black-ink scratches and splatters of color. Fluid and exuberant, the crazy cast of characters (many of whom Drescher fans will recognize) gaily prance across the double-page spreads, while observant readers will enjoy spotting the disarming, diminutive poet in each drawing. Dancing sausages, talking shoes, an assortment of bizarre feathered creatures and outlandish insects abound. The people are surreal at best, and often grotesque, but perfectly suit the divine silliness of the verses--``As I went out/ The other day,/ My head fell off/ and rolled away./ But when I noticed/ It was gone,/ I picked it up/ And put it on.'' Even the youngest readers will nevermore see the ubiquitous nom de plume without thinking of the irrepressible Ms. Mouse. --Luann Toth , School Library Journal (c) Copyright 2010.

With tongue firmly in cheek, Prelutsky prefaces this comical collection of traditional and anonymous verses by elucidating the trials and tribulations of A. Nonny Mouse. Ms. Mouse--obviously ``no ordinary rodent''--claims that a typographical error caused all her ``little verses'' to be printed under the wrong name, a mistake Prelutsky rectifies with the publication of this book. Although many of these verses will be familiar to young readers (such as ``how much wood could a woodchuck chuck?''), the conceit of Ms. Mouse's plight is so clever, and Drescher's illustrations, as usual, are so strikingly original, that the work surely can be forgiven its repetition. Indeed, the artist seems to have outdone himself with these intricately detailed surrealistic drawings that perfectly capture the poems' zany spirits. Children will enjoy spotting Ms. Mouse on every page as she exhorts Drescher's droll characters in their wacky pursuits and smiles serenely at a world where boots have sharp teeth and a dog's tail turns into a snake.

From the introduction to the concluding poem, the giggles and chuckles are plentiful. A wonderful way to introduce poetry to a recalcitrant class. Review, p. 82. (c) Copyright 2010. The Horn Book, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.
Kirkus评论
In a delightful introduction, Prelutsky--himself well-known as a comic poet--explains that the present collection was initiated in a correspondence with Ms. Mouse, who has had trouble getting recognition for her work ever since someone misspelled her name as ""Anonymous."" Here are some of her most characteristic rhymes. As might be expected from a mouse, many of these are about small things and many about animals. All have the lilt of traditional verse; they're all funny, ranging from dry wit to total hilarity. Prelutsky claims that he wrote just four, and challenges the reader to identify them. This reader believes him capable of having perpetrated any one of them, though many are already familiar. Related pieces appear together, allowing Drescher to combine several in his extraordinary, surreal double spreads. With a marvelous, irreverent, calligraphic line, he shapes the antics of the bizarre creatures, then paints them in gloriously cheerful, subtle colors. Drescher's art has always been a critical success; here the subject and the style are an especially felicitous match. An ebullient collection to provide hours of fun.

Gr. 3-5. Jack Prelutsky introduces this collection of mostly familiar short poems by describing a letter from a Ms. A. Nonny Mouse, who wrote a great deal of excellent verse (limericks, humorous rhymes, tongue twisters, schoolyard verse, and assorted nonsense), which most anthologists have mistakenly attributed to her soundalike, Anonymous. Nonny appears throughout the illustrations, cavorting with the characters from the rhymes. Prelutsky contributed four original poems and challenges readers to find them. While Drescher's artwork, scratchy ink drawings with mottled watercolor washes, has nothing of the prettiness often expected in pictures for children, it portrays his unique and sometimes grotesque visions with energy and precision. Possibly the relative sophistication of the graphics will make these simple poems accessible to older children, who spurn anything that looks like a book of nursery rhymes. Or perhaps its best use would be as a read-aloud for children young enough to enjoy the poems and old enough to appreciate the illustrations. --Carolyn Phelan
