Kalli Dakos, mistress of humorous poems about elementary school life, serves up a new and unusual selection of poems in her latest collection. It's Wacky Wednesday in Mrs. Churn's classroom, a day when anything can happen. And all of a sudden letters and numbers are behaving very oddly indeed. There's a 2 in the alphabet and a B in the clock, someone forgot to put O where it belongs, number 9 won't stay in line, number 8 is always late, and nobody will play with Y at all -- she just asks too many questions. Will the letters and numbers in this wacky classroom ever get back to normal?

These clever poems have all the appeal of puzzles. Young readers just learning to count and recite the alphabet can hunt for out-of-place letters and misbehaving numbers, and will enjoy all the goofy antics of Wacky Wednesday.
