Every guy, no matter what the age is going to love this very funny memoir about Jon(The Stinky Cheese Man and MORE!) Scieszka’s childhood.

CoverA Child’s Garden of  Verses
by Robert Louis Stevenson
ISBN 978-0811841689
This children’s classic was my favorite book as a child. I loved the illustrations as much as the poems but unfortunately the book belonged to my sister. I always wanted my own copy of this special book. So don’t disappoint your children; give each of them their own copy!
