Do you snore? Know someone who is going bald or expecting a baby? Do you fish, play the piano, or have an opinion about stewed prunes? If so, West wrote a poem especially for you.Rhymes & Doodles from a Wind-up Toy began as a book for grownups. But as the author played with words, she couldn’t keep a lid on her childish glee, nor could she refrain from doodling. Packed with surprises for all ages, these uplifting rhymes entertain without being edge. Expect to laugh, cry, and break out in rhyme yourself upon exposure!
