Children's Literature
Idioms are a tricky business for children, and this story is a useful way to introduce those literal little people in our lives to them. Told in rhyme, the story juxtaposes a child’s literal interpretation of several idioms, proverbs, and clichés with factual information on what each idiom actually means.

Children's Literature
Idioms are a tricky business for children, and this story is a useful way to introduce those literal little people in our lives to them. Told in rhyme, the story juxtaposes a child’s literal interpretation of several idioms, proverbs, and clichés with factual information on what each idiom actually means. Told in rhyme, the child describes what her grandmother must mean when she says things like “Hit the hay.” She comically envisions boxing gloves and hay, when in fact Grandma is referring to a time when mattresses were typically stuffed with hay. “Hitting the hay” back then simply meant going to bed. While most of the factual information is helpful, it occasionally veers to the fanciful and nonsensical. While explaining what “knee-high to a grasshopper” means, the author suggests: “If you ever meet a giant grasshopper, ask him to take you for a ride. P.S. Don’t forget to eat your vegetables. “ Despite these hiccups, the book will have a place in classrooms as an introduction to sayings of all kinds. The artwork is nicely rendered with endpapers that surely exist as wallpaper in all of our Grandma’s homes. Reviewer: Joan Kindig, Ph.D.
