From the Publisher
Nobody but Jack Prelutsky and Peter S? could thrice dip into a bubbling cauldron of spooky fun and produce The Dragons Are Singing Tonight, Monday's Troll, and now The Gargoyle on the Roof. Young fans who've been growling for more from this remarkable pair will devour these seventeen new poems. And whether they prefer gargoyles, griffins, or gremlins, this one-of-a-kind collection of poetry and ingeniously eerie paintings provides something for everyone to chant out loud, memorize--and shiver over!
Synopsis
Twenty-eight rollicking rhymes are paired with bright, sunny artwork in this collaboration between two children's books celebrities. Many of Prelutsky's catchy poems mention cities in North America, and Williams's full-page illustrations accent their whimsy.
Publisher's Weekly
Prelutsky and S s (The Dragons Are Singing Tonight; Monday's Troll) are at it again, concocting another spine-tingling brew of humorous verse and witty illustrations toasting gruesome ghouls. Celebrating gremlins, griffins and basilisks as well as more garden-variety monsters, Prelutsky's poems are filled with nimble word-play and shameless puns (quips a formerly lonely troll newly equipped with a telephone, "Feel free to call me, night or day/ .../ I've got a troll-free number"). Whether reciting the laments of an aging werewolf or observing a vampire's daily grooming habits ("When I look into the mirror,/ My reflection's never there./ So I always stare at nothing/ As I shave and comb my hair"), his rhymes never fail to amuse. S s's ethereal oil and gouache illustrations, with their elegantly designed borders and finely cross-hatched detail, play up the inherent humor while bringing a touch of sophistication to the silliness, and he ties the pages together visually with an antique-like ochre frame around each scene. This is another winner from a pair of seasoned collaborators, and fans can only hope they keep them coming.
Children's Literature
Prelutsky's nonsense rhymes are paired with full-color illustrations by Williams, who is best known for his drawings for Charlotte's Web and the Little House books. Most of the rhymes are short and feature animals. A few are quite clever, the rest will appeal to Prelutsky's fans.
School Library Journal
With this book of new rhymes, readers will discover a modern-day alternative to Mother Goose. Twenty-nine wonderfully rhythmic chants introduce such colorful characters as Hannah Banana, who ``walked on her hands from Montana to Maine,'' and Minnie and Moe, who ``went to Chicago/ to see the wind blow.'' Prelutsky's rhymes are rich in language, story, humor, and sensory content. But the joy of this book is not just the rhymesit's also Williams' glorious, brightly colored pictures, which bring the words to life. These pictures faithfully show episodes from the poems while extending and enhancing the text. Who could forget the sad little faces of the ``poor potatoes underground'' who ``never see the sunny skies /what a waste of all those eyes!'' Constance A. Mellon, Department of Library & Information Studies, East Carolina University, Greenville, N.C.
Kirkus Reviews
With customary vim and darkly musical verse, Prelutsky introduces gremlins, griffins, goblins, basilisks, and their kinfolk, playing readers like stringed instruments, keeping them rapt with quick changes in tempo and by varying the architecture of his poems. Some start out silky and charming—"The moon and stars have vanished,/The long dark night is through,/Another day is dawning,/The sky is clear and blue"—before the daymares and terrors of the gargoyle's lullaby begin. Others inject dread into the bones from the opening gate: "I am running through a tunnel/Where there isn't any sun./There's an ogre right behind me,/Running faster than I run." Sís's artwork is a perfect companion to the verse, gratifyingly sinister with its Transylvanian landscapes and crabbed, clawed surfaces. Both poet and illustrator know, however, how to bevel the effects to make the chills a pleasure: Sís makes his troll roly-poly, and Prelutsky defangs a werewolf: "I, a werewolf of distinction,/Used to fill the night with fear,/But I'm entering the twilight/Of my infamous career."
