Painter and writer Calef Brown pours his boundless creative energy into his poetry. In Flamingos on the Roof, Brown crafts 29 nonsense poems conjuring mythic and contemporary images of everything from gatorflies to light-bulb-topped birthday cakes. Kids will revel in the lively wordplay, while parents and teachers will recognize the value in teaching kids alliterative and assonant sounds.

Critic reviews

"Read aloud, these poems are sure to delight listeners." ( School Library Journal)

I loved the narration because the reader used so much exaggerated emphasis and pronunciation that it held my attention perfectly. Children would also adore this book. Filled with cute absurdities.
