Agee pairs his urbane comic art with a collection of jumbled words and phrases. The anagrams generally make amazingly apt connections between each set of rearranged words, coupling the eyes with they see and astronomer with moonstarer. The deadpan black-and-white illustrations add fun to this good-natured introduction.
