The Underwear Salesman: And Other Jobs for Better or Verse

(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Serge Bloch. This entertaining collection presents one profession per poem, with subjects ranging from the expected ("Librarian") to the odd ("Baby Chick Inspector," "Bubble Bath Tester"). Lewis's skill for puns and wordplay keeps things lively. Bloch's eye-popping digital collage illustrations enhance the quirky energy of the text, combining varying textures and mediums to great effect.
