Title: Whatever Happened to Humpty Dumpty?
Author: David Greenberg
"Gleefully mixes metaphors and scrambled genres... Schindler's waggish illustrations join in the merry parody."
Publishers Weekly
"From Jack Sprat to Little Miss Muffet, no one is safe from Greenberg's
poetic wit."

Five Stars: Fun for the whole family, May 7, 2000
Reviewer: from Virginia
"These silly and irreverent sequels to some of Mother Goose's rhymes, written in language children will love, will leave family members of every age laughing. The accompanying illustrations are clever and humorous and add just the right touch. A wonderful book for everyone. I recommend it highly."
Four Stars: Funny, Motivating, April 4, 2000
Reviewer: Katie Porter from Overland Park, KS
"As a elementary teacher, I am always looking for ways to motivate writing through the use of literature and this was a sure win! The kids could relate to the nursery rhymes and come up with their own ways to change the endings or add to them! Great, humorous, and a wonderful addition to any young (at heart) reader's library!"
