The Wonder Book by Amy Krouse Rosenthal, illustrated by Paul Schmid

From chapters.ca:
Hello, You! So... this book is full of stuff I've always wondered about... Like:
* Did Miss Mary Mack have friends who liked other colours?
* Could everything important about the world be summarized in a poem that rhymes?
* How do Moms always know when you're about to sneak a cookie?
* Who hid something under the Tooth Fairy's pillow when she was a little girl?
Inside you will find stories, short poems, lists, palindromes, visual treats, and random observations. Some parts are happy, some sad- ish, some silly, some serious, some crunchy, some with a soft center. You can open the book up anywhere and read. So the beginning could be the end, and the end could be the beginning. But I guess the middle is always the middle.... P.S. aren't Paul's drawings the best?!
