Rhyming Picture Book of the Week: It's Only Stanley

I love this book. My kids love this book. I think my dog loves this book. It's out of this world. It's Only Stanley, by Jon Agee.


I love how it was a story before it was a rhyme. I just know it was. I love the ease about it. I love how the first time I read it, I had no idea what was going on (I didn't read the inside flap). I love the sound effects. I love how every time I read it, I find some new detail to feel joy about.

    Need some new fangled thots, ideers and names? HEER YE! O HEER YE!! "Step right up, young laddy!!" cries the carnival barker: if I'm a sower, we plant the Seed; if I'm an artist, we write the Word:

    I actually saw Seventh-Heaven when we died: you couldn't GET any moe curly, extravagantly-surplus-lush Upstairs when my beautifull, brilliant, bombastic girl passed-away at 17.

    "Those who are wise will shine as brightly as the expanse of the Heavens, and those who have instructed many in uprightousness as bright as stars for all eternity"
    -Daniel 12:3

    Here's what the prolific, exquisite GODy sed: 'the more you shall honor Me, the more I shall bless you'
    -the Infant Jesus of Prague.

    Go git'm, girl. You're incredible.
    See you Upstairs...
