From the Publisher: Written to be read aloud by two voices-sometimes alternating, sometimes simultaneous-here is a collection of irresistible poems that celebrate the insect world, from the short life of the mayfly to the love song of the book louse. Funny, sad, loud, and quiet, each of these poems resounds with a booming, boisterous, joyful noise.

What play could possibly suit the point-and-click attention spans of kids born with remote controls in their cribs? A nonstop farce that juxtaposes seven different plays--performed simultaneously: as characters from one play end up on the set of another, their befuddlement, exasperation, and brave attempts at improvisation are truly priceless.
