I first stumbled upon these recreated nursery rhymes when a good friend sent me an email that contained some of them. I laughed, and posted it on my blog Smiling Sally. I did not know that the book existed!

This is a funny book. The art work is terrific. Some of the rhymes stumble a bit, but I quickly forgive anyone who gives me a chuckle. And, this book is chock full of chuckles. I especially liked Low-Fat Cake, No-Cal Shake. I sang along (to the tune of London Bridge Is Falling Down on page 43) to My Poor Sadie. The final page lists the original nursery rhyme titles.

I think that it would make an excellent gift for anyone with a sense of humor over the age of forty. Note: contains some profanity and adult themes. ( )
