From the kid-like brain of Ted Scheu, one of the world's funniest poets for children, here comes a house-full of dreams, screams, groans, and giggles. Family life has never been more humorously or honestly portrayed in poems than in I Froze My Mother and other Seriously Funny Family Poems. In this collection of rhyming poems, children ages 7 to 11 will find answers to nagging childhood questions and problems. Now they can instantly freeze their mothers. Learn new words from their dad. Maybe trade their brothers. Or help their sisters share their secrets. The fresh, honest voices lurking within these poems combine with eye-popping Peter Lourie photographs to endlessly tickle gigglebones. Kids will zoom through this collection before their mother even thaws. I Froze My Mother is one of the funniest, freshest collections of poems for kids to tumble down the stairs in years. Give it a test giggle today. I Froze My Mother is a hilarious companion to Ted Scheu's other funny poetry collections, I Tickled My Teachers and I Threw My Brother Out'all from Young Poet's Press. I Froze My Mother inspired celebrated children's author and poet J. Patrick Lewis to write, ?Ted Scheu's ?seriously funny family poems? gleefully demonstrate that he is seriously off his noodle-?high praise for a children's poet. I Froze My Mother takes up where Jack Prelutsky left off...somewhere in outer space.'
