Nick Cannon’s book of poetry is okay if you don't take it too seriously. It’s not mind-blowing, just random thoughts that kids might be able to relate to. You have an assortment of inspirational poems, potty humor, and regular humor. Some are really good, some so-so, some completely uninspired, and some (involving bodily functions) are just nasty.
I didn’t take to this book easily because it’s so uneven, but there’s a lot to like. Maybe if I just white-out the poems I don’t like… Some of my favorites are: Positive vs. Negative, Lend Your Light (great message), School of Hip Hop (inventive but may go over some kids’ heads), Talkin’ Jazz (really like this one… it is jazzy), The Building in Me, Just to Throw You, The Enemy Within (great), and Foot in Mouth disease (funny).
Some kids might not grasp all of the things discussed, and some parents might not agree with the potty humor. It’s best if parents review it beforehand. - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Nick Cannon wrote this poetry book in a very similar fashion as Shel Silverstien. The poems range from moral lessons to silly tales. Each poem accompanies a graffiti style illustration.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I am not swayed by a "celebrity" tied to a book. I picked this one up because I am always on the look out for new books to expose my nephews to like different genres and writing styles. This one is full of poems. Poems ranging from wacky, short, long, gross, and real life. The art work in this collect of poems is cool. It is like graffiti. Which I thought is a cool way of portraying stories. A couple of my favorite poems from this collection are:HatersHaters like to bully, but I will not waver.Haters think they're tough, but I'm the one who's braver.Haters are doubters, and I'm a believer.Haters are cowards, and I'm an achiever. One day when I'm older, living my dream.I'll let that hate melt away, just like ice cream.Brushing My Tiger's TeethGood grief?How I hate brushing my tiger's teeth!I cried, "Tiger, you better open up wide!"And I just nearly crumbled.I wish there were another way to keep my tiger plaque-free.When I put the brush inside his mouth, I think he'll attach me. I timidly scrub his molars but skip the last three, Because he's ticklish back there, and he might snap me!The dentist says I'm doing great, no tooth has been lost.Only problem is, now I keep forgetting to floss!
