Flabbergaster by Mark Carthew

Flabbergaster by Mark Carthew

This book of poems celebrates the magic of machinery. Each of the poems in this book uses figurative language and creative vocabulary to best describe these incredible tools and all of their magnificent uses. These machines can do it all--from construction work to making your toast! With names like the Flabbergaster and the Dippledopper, children will love the silly and inventive poems accompanied by such amazing illustrations.
