(3) K-3 Illustrated by Marc Rosenthal. Black and Rosenthal spoof the then–presidential candidate in this introduction to a cartoonishly vain creature called "the Trump." Black's rhymes are observant and funny, if clearly adult-aimed ("Here's where a Trump will go on at some length / On the size of its manhood and physical strength"); Rosenthal manages quite a likeness with his faceless (except for a big, roaring mouth) orange blob.
