REVIEWS

Irrepressible, unpredictable, and raucously popular childrenâ€™s poet Kenn Nesbitt was spawned in the same cracked petri dish as Jack Prelutsky, to whom he is the natural heir. A title guaranteed to generate â€œNo, wait, read this one!â€ responses, The Armpit of Doom is more mayhem from one of the masters.
(J. Patrick Lewis, U.S. Childrenâ€™s Poet Laureate, author of Please Bury Me in the Library and many other books for children)

Kenn Nesbitt wrote a book of poems
A funny one I think.
And though itâ€™s colored black and white
Watch it tickle you PINK!
(Douglas Florian, author and illustrator of Comets, Stars, the Moon, and Mars: Space Poems and Paintings)

Is there anything Kenn Nesbitt can't write a poem about? The Armpit of Doom features five dozen poems full of clever wordplay, impeccable rhythms and funny punch lines. To borrow from one of Kenn's titles, Please Don't Read This Poem, my advice is, "Please do read this book!"
(Bob Raczka, author of Guyku: A Year of Haiku for Boys and Lemonade: And Other Poems Squeezed from a Single Word)

Kenn Nesbitt's brain is the clown car of children's poetry. I don't know how they all fit in there, but they keep tumbling out, one after another, each one funnier than the one before it. (Eric Ode, poet and songwriter. Author of When You're a Pirate Dog and Other Pirate Poems)

I liked ARMPIT (the book) a lot. Armpits are not my favorite body part. (Bruce Lansky, author of If Pigs Could Fly... And Other Deep Thoughts)

Despite the many warnings ("Please Don't Read This Poem!") kids cannot escape the odorous allure of Nesbitt's THE ARM PIT OF DOOM! No problem. They won't want to! Instead they will find "There's only one solution. Here's what you'll have to do: Tell all your friends and family they shouldn't read it too!" (Charles Ghigna, AKA "Father Goose," author of Score! 50 Poems to Motivate and Inspire)

What makes this collection most special are the contemporary details sprinkled throughout (the iPod, XBox, and Kindle, Red Bull, J.K. Rowling, scrunchies, computer woes). Kids will really love the clever nonsense in poems like "On the Thirty-Third of Januaugust" and "It's Fun to Leave the Spaces Out." Teachers, beware: theirsentencesmightlooklikethisforafewdaysafterreadingthisbook!" (Janet Wong, author of You Have to Write)

Fans of Kenn Nesbitt will gobble up this new offering, which combines his infallible command of rhyme scheme with the hilarious--yet oddly contemplative--wisdom of a child pondering the world.
(Joyce Sidman, author of Swirl by Swirl: Spirals in Nature)
