Summary

"In Calef Brown's poem "We Go Together," he jubilantly decrees: "We go together / like fingers and thumbs. / Basses and drums. / Pastries and crumbs." In "You Are Two (Kiwis)," he muses, "I am quite frequently, / reminded by thee / of a kiwi. / Either kind."

Like Sandol Stoddard's I Like You, We Go Together! this book makes an offbeat Valentine's gift for anyone with a good sense of humor and a penchant for wordplay"--
