Okay, so Jamie Lee Curtis isn't the ONLY shining light in the wasteland of celebrity picture books -- I now acknowledge a place for Steve Martin, as well. This book is a hoot to read, especially if you've ever played the game that starts "Alice lives in Alabama and sells apples," etc. Your tongue will get twisted, and yet the rhymes aren't awkward as with some rhyming books. But the real fun is in the illustrations. The cartoons are chock-full of further alliteration and many more levels of comedy.

"I loVVVe your jacket! Is it vintage? Velvet? Vinyl? Vegan? Does it close with Velcro? Did it come with a Vest?"
