Biographical Note:
New York Times bestselling author Matt Eicheldinger wasn't always a writer. He spent most of his childhood playing soccer, reading comics, and trying his best to stay out of trouble. Matt lives in Bloomington, Minnesota with his wife and two children, and tries to create new adventures with them whenever possible. When he's not writing, you can find him telling students stories in the classroom or trail running along the Minnesota River Bottoms.

Review Quotes:
"There is a wild amount of imagination at play throughout the collection. Generally written to entertain first and provoke thought second, many of these zany poems are a part of a friendly, fun batch for readers looking for relatable, casual, and occasionally irreverent material."
(School Library Journal)

The poems range in style, including:
  • an ode to an egg-filled burrito,

  • a lyrical poem about basketball,
