Book Description
Whats brewing when two favorites--poetry and fairy tales--are turned (literally) on their heads? Its a revolutionary recipe: an infectious new genre of poetry and a lovably modern take on classic stories.
First, read the poems forward (how old-fashioned!), then reverse the lines and read again to give familiar tales, from Sleeping Beauty to that Charming Prince, a delicious new spin. Witty, irreverent, and warm, this gorgeously illustrated and utterly unique offering holds a mirror up to language and fairy tales, and renews the fun and magic of both.
School Library Journal *Starred Review*
This appealing collection based on fairy tales is a marvel to read. It is particularly noteworthy because the poems are read in two ways: up and down. They are reverse images of themselves and work equally well in both directions. "Mirror Mirror" is chilling in that Snow White, who is looking after the Seven Dwarves, narrates the first poem of the pair. Read in reverse, it is the wicked queen who is enticing Snow White to eat the apple that will put her to sleep forever. "In the Hood" is as crafty as the wolf who tells of his delightful anticipation of eating Red Riding Hood. The mirrored poem is Red Riding Hood reminding herself not to dally since Grandma awaits. The vibrant artwork is painterly yet unfussy and offers hints to the characters who are narrating the poems. An endnote shows children how to create a "reverse" poem. This is a remarkably clever and versatile book that would work in any poetry or fairy-tale unit. A must-have for any library.
Booklist *Starred Review*
This ingenious book of reversos, or poems which have one meaning when read down the page and perhaps an altogether different meaning when read up the page, toys with and reinvents oh-so-familiar stories and characters, from Cinderella to the Ugly Duckling. The five opening lines of the Goldilocks reverso read: Asleep in cubs bed / Blonde / startled by / Bears, / the headline read. Running down the page side-by-side with this poem is a second, which ends with: Next day / the headline read: / Bears startled / by blonde / asleep in cubs bed. The 14 pairs of poems-easily distinguished by different fonts and background colors-allow changes only in punctuation, capitalization, and line breaks, as Singer explains in an authors note about her invented poetic form. It is a form that is both challenging and fun-rather like creating and solving a puzzle. Singer also issues an invitation for readers to try to write their own reversos on any topic. Matching the cleverness of the text, Masses deep-hued paintings create split images that reflect the twisted meaning of the irreverently witty poems and brilliantly employ artistic elements of form and shape-Cinderellas clock on one side morphs to the moon on the other. A must-purchase that will have readers marveling over a visual and verbal feast.
Kirkus Reviews *Starred Review*
"A mesmerizing and seamless celebration of language, imagery and perspective."
Publishers Weekly *Starred Review*
"Masses clever compositions play with symmetry, bringing this smart concept to its fullest effect."
The Horn Book *Starred Review*
"Cleverly constructed and insightful."
Library Media Connection *Starred Review*
"Truly a visual, as well as a literary, puzzle and such a treat!"
Shelf Awareness *Starred Review*
Fun, thoughtful, beautifully written poems that employ a poetic form called a reverso to spin a familiar fairy tale in a new direction.
