(1) K-3 Illustrated by Lane Smith. A teacher's comment ("if you listen closely enough, you can hear the poetry of science in everything") causes a boy to "start hearing everything as a science poem." Scieszka's clever verses, lampooning works by Edgar Allan Poe and others, and Smith's characteristically zany illustrations relate simple scientific concepts about topics such as precipitation and atoms. A CD of Scieszka and Smith reading the verses is included.
