"A clever twist on Robert Frost's classic poem where a little boy riding a hippo gets into quite an argument with the bard over what would be a far more interesting plot to the poem"--

A boy gives Robert Frost feedback about Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening to make it more exciting, suggesting a hippo instead of a horse, and replacing falling snow with cookie dough, in an irreverent picture book. Simultaneous eBook. Illustrations.

In the spirit of Lane Smith and Jon Klassen, this delightfully irreverent picture book dives into the world of Robert Frost’s “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening,” where a boy with a unique vision gives some creative feedback to the famed poet.

When Robert Frost writes, “Whose woods these are I think I know,” he paints a picture of a serene winter night in the deep woods, surrounded by blankets and blankets of snow. But the tranquil scene is interrupted by a little boy! This wildly imaginative interloper generously offers to tweak the poem to make it more exciting.

Instead of riding a horse, why not a hippo? And replace the snow falling from the sky with cookie dough! As Robert Frost sputters in dismay, the boy unleashes poetic mayhem, but when his edits get away from him, the self-possessed poet and chaotic kid have to put their heads together to make a clean getaway.

Recenzijas

 The disconnect between the staid poet and the imaginative child makes for a highly amusing example of metafiction, while the digital art blends elegantly composed wintry backdrops with cartoonish images of the characters and various animals, with gleefully chaotic results. Sets an American literary classic on a wonderfully wrong turn.  -- Kirkus Reviews * 10/15/2024 * In this picture book, author Richard T. Morris and illustrator Julie Rowan-Zoch have taken Frosts words off the shelf, given them a dusting, added a kid and a hippopotamus, and created a delightful, charming and clever tale. Stopping by Jungle on a Snowy Evening is an irreverent homage that will leave all readers smiling. 

Julie Rowan-Zochs cartoon-like depiction of the protagonist is immediately familiar and loveable: curious, imaginative and a little cheeky, wearing a backwards hat and slide sandals. In contrast, Frost is drawn in a more traditional style. Rowan-Zochs bold, clever art mashes both their worlds together [ ...] Reality and imagination smash together, and the result is perfect hilarity.

Stopping by Jungle on a Snowy Evening is a rare find. Its a combo of old and new, clever and classic, innovative and familiarperfect for any fathomable storytime scenario. Even more rare, there isnt a single thing this reviewer would change about it. Two thumbs up. -- BookPage, STARRED REVIEW * 12/1/2024 *
