About the book

Accompanied by B&W cartoons, these rhymes teach the necessary little lessons of life in the computer age with an infectious rhythm that makes them hard to forget. The critics' reaction has been positive. It is recommended by "ComputerEdge Magazine" and "The MidWest Book Review" calls it "a delightful collection of brief poems ... deriving from the computer and the internet, [with] that very funny but "oh-so-true" recognition that will entertain and delight the reader." Judge's comments from the Writer's Digest Book Awards: "Turning Mother Goose rhymes into computeresque rhymes is a very clever idea, and one that is well done. The rhymes work well, keeping the flavor of the Mother Goose originals, and benefiting from the witty additions of Mother Mouse. Especially clever are 'A Jolly Phisherman,' 'Hickory Dickory Dare,' 'There Once was a Program,' and 'A Diller, a Dollar.' The notes and glossary are a nice touch and make for fascinating reading. 'The Sorcerer's Apprentice' is witty."
