The stars are made of lemon juice...
...and rain makes applesauce.
Elbows grow on a tickle tree...
...and rain makes applesauce.
Oh, you're just talking silly talk.

This is a book of silly talk. It doesn't pretend to be anything else. And yet it is an extraordinary creation, in which author and artist speak to children in a very special way. The fanciful nonsense and marvelously intricate pictures are full of sly subtleties and happy surprises for both eye and ear. It is a book of absurd delights, of tiny, fey graphic details, of captivating scenes and lyrical phrases that stretch the imagination. Children will return to it again and again for new meanings, new images, new responses.

“柠檬汁做成了星星/雨做成了苹果酱/噢，你只是在把胡话讲。”这是一本描写孩子们“疯癫呓语”的书。在这部了不起的创新作品中，作者和绘者以一种特别的方式与孩子们进行交流。书中的奇谈怪论、错综繁复的插图、生动的细节，洋溢着令人愉悦的惊喜，为小读者们奉献了一场绝妙的视觉和听觉盛宴。
