The tighty whitey spider

BY KENN NESBITT

The Tighty Whitey Spider by Kenn Nesbitt

Following up the bestselling collection, My Hippo Has the Hiccups, Kenn Nesbitt dares to go where no poet has gone before; creating a whole host of laugh-out-loud scenarios involving animals doing extreme sports.  

Kids love Kenn’s clever word play and wonderful imagery. This brand new collection also includes an audio download of Kenn—one of the most sought-after school performers in North America—reading the poems in his inimitable style. And Ethan Long provides the perfect complement to Kenn’s poetry with his brilliant line drawings.

With poems like “My Puppy Punched Me in the Eye” and “I Bought Our Cat a Jetpack,” this collection shines bright with rhymes that are full of jokes, thrills, and surprises.  Animals Doing Extreme Sports will keep kids laughing—and loving poetry.
