	On the Edge With Coolhead Luke (Paperback, 2009) By Jennifer Lasker White	Ages 9-12	10/24/2009 Add
	JenWhite said: Brought to you by the mother and son team that created “Coolhead Luke and Other Stories”, this second collection will engage and delight even the most reluctant readers. Jennifer’s humorous poems and Colin’s whimsical illustrations play off each other beautifully, inventing a cast of bizarre characters presented with a unique set of challenges and absurdities. The poems are composed in an animated, jaunty style that is a joy to read. In the midst of the fun, there are teachable opportunities to demonstrate the fundamentals of poetry, including a teacher’s guide in the back of the book. Ideal for ages 8-12, this is a charming collection for children and parents alike. tags: children's books, funny poems, funny drawings, funny illustrations, reluctant readers, humorous books, juvenile 9-12, , I wrote
