(3) K-3 "Do taffy pullers ever push and make a glob of sticky mush?" A boy addresses his rapidly unspooling mental list of questions to the reader. The rhymes are sometimes unabashedly silly; at other times they inspire thought. The acrylics, which feature text that changes font, size, and arc, are artfully jam-packed, like the narrator's mind.
