Mom and Dad Are Palindromes: A Dilemma for Words...and Backwards

Poor Bob is shocked to discover that he is a palindrome, and what is more, so is almost everyone in his family. No matter what he tries it seems he cannot escape them; there are palindromes everywhere. The cover promises more than 101 palindromes hidden in the book. Check out the palindromes embedded in the dedication by these two clever guys. Children (and adults) will have a great time finding them. Don't overlook the book titles on the shelves, the baby's gurgle, and the angry sound of the truck horn. The bold pictures underscore Bob's frantic feelings. A great book for teaching wordplay.

This was a thoroughly delightful book which my 6-year old grandson enjoyed immensely particularly so since his grandfather's name is also a palindrome. It was humourous, clever and very educational.

As a fourth grade teacher I purchased this book to use with my students. They absolutely loved it and found the book funny. After I read it to them they searched high and low for other words that were palindromes.

Great book for children interested in the words and vocabulary. I enjoyed it. I purchased it for my grand daughter age 4. Not sure she will appreciate it until she is older. My daughter really enjoyed it. Think it is a book adults can appreciate as well as children.

I read this book to my niece and nephew and they wanted me to read it over again rather than switching to a new book. It passes the "Uncle test"!
