Stacy is wrong, anyone who has seen the spongebob epesode where he looks in other people's dreams will remember Gary's quoted poem "There once was a man from Peru, who dreamed he was eating his shoe. The man awoke with a fright, in the middle of the night, to find that his dream had come true." and wanted to find works like it (myself, for one) will love this book.I'm writing this for people who, like myself, have no idea what this book is about untill you read it, because of some idiot's belief that "This book has been formatted from it's original version..." is some magic phrase that tells us what the book is about.This book has dozens of hilarious short stories in miniture peom form. Here is an example of some of my favorites."There was an old man of Quebec-- a beetle ran over his neck; But he cried "With a needle, I slay you O beadle!" That angry old man of Quebec.""There was an old man with a poker, who painted his face a red ochre. When they said "You're a guy!" he made no reply, But knocked them all down with his poker."and my favorite of them all, which any spongebob fan would love, "There was an old man of Peru, who watched his wife make stew; but once, by mistake, in a stove she did bake, that unfortunate man of Peru."
