Summaries and Reviews
Summary
A collection of highly unlikely newspaper stories invites readers to count giant banjos, carrot icicles, pickle balloons, jelly faucets, and other unusual objects, in a whimsical book that makes counting fun.
Amazon.com description: Product Description:
In sensational (and highly unlikely) newspaper stories, readers can count giant banjos, carrot icicles, pickle balloons, and jelly faucets. Max Groverâs paintings, with their intense color and unexpected juxtapositions, make counting more fun than a car with sixteen wheels on one side! âThe paintings are wonderously bright, oscillating between campy humor and pure absurdity. A full-blast chuckle machine that doubles, very quietly, as a book about numbers.â-Kirkus Reviews
