    About this ebook

    If you look for a book of rhyming stories for today’s children, this is it! From unfaithful socks to kings banning ice cream, from split personality hotdogs to mosquitoes that know the meaning of life, from mean bunny shadows to fish that “pee on your towel or your comfy beach chair just because they have to go and the beach is right there”, the characters of this upside-down world are anything but ordinary. Open this book at any page and enjoy!
