Publisher's summary
Sir Silly is very serious about being silly.
Good-bye, hello, welcome, and good night. Introducing the wonderful world of Sir Silly. He was born before time, and so he has no time for such time that was before that time. He thinks in rhyme and always lets his imagination dance freely. Sir Silly is all he can be, to be as silly as he can.
It seems to have never left him since he was a little boy. He plays with words and the pictures that they can create. Some play with paint, chalk, or pencils. Others are actors and play with characters and their voices. Then there are those who give us music, who play with tunes and words together. It's all about making fun out of having fun and maybe being funny while doing so.
Please enjoy the silly side of a man soaked in silly. May all that you hear give you all that you see. And all you that see make you read with glee.
Sir Silly is in all of us. I hope you find him in you. Welcome to the world where words play. These poems are for children who should never grow up and for those who never did. This book is dedicated to the child in all of us, to all the children I have known, and to all the children who get to know Sir Silly.

Story
Written in her unique prose style, Gertrude Stein's The World Is Round chronicles the adventures of a young girl named Rose - a whimsical tale that delights in wordplay and sound while exploring the ideas of personal identity and individuality. This stunning volume replicates the original 1939 edition to a T. Also featured here are two essays that provide an inside view to the making of the book.

Story
Fired from his longtime job as captain of the Coal Patrol, two-foot-three-inch, 1,300-year-old elf Gumdrop Coal is angry. He's one of Santa's original elves, inspired by the fat man's vision to bring joy to children on that one special day each year. But somewhere along the way, things went sour for Gumdrop. Maybe it was delivering one too many lumps of coal for the Naughty List. Maybe it's the conspiracy against Christmas that he's starting to sense down every chimney.

For Milo, everything’s a bore. When a tollbooth mysteriously appears in his room, he drives through only because he’s got nothing better to do. But on the other side, things seem different. Milo visits the Island of Conclusions (you get there by jumping), learns about time from a ticking watchdog named Tock, and even embarks on a quest to rescue Rhyme and Reason. Somewhere along the way, Milo realizes something astonishing. Life is far from dull. In fact, it’s exciting beyond his wildest dreams.
