Produktbeschreibungen
From Booklist
Gr. 3-7. Agee is a palindrome pro, and his sixth book on word play is a creative, comedic gem. Each two-page spread reveals a hilarious story in comic-book panels, using only palindromes as text. The expressive, black-and-white illustrations enhance the humor, sometimes creating meaning where the palindromes alone do not. Sprinkled among the standard approaches are upside-down words, distorted alphabet letters, and some panoramic scenes that will invoke laughter from both kids and adults. Even when he stretches the technique, with sometimes indecipherable monologues, Agee maintains a sparkle of mischievous fun that will impress readers. Although it would seem he's covered most standard ("Madam, I'm Adam") and the unexpected ("gnu dung") palindromes, a few inclusions in the acknowledgments page indicate there are plenty more for kids to finish up on their own--and even for another installment from Agee: "Want it? Naw?" "Uh, hu." You do. Roger Leslie

From School Library Journal
Grade 4 Up-In his fourth collection of palindromes, Agee continues his love affair with the English language. The first page is a dedication to "MOM" in mammoth, "stone" block letters. Like the previous books, the pages are filled with whimsical black-and-white drawings of absurd or nonsensical situations. Some of the approximately 170 palindromes are monologues, some are comic-strip stories, and others are simply descriptive situations. From "How Palindromes Are Formed in the Atmosphere" to "AIBOHPHOBIA: Unusual Fear of Palindromes," readers are treated to rib-tickling, humorous stories, often with a subtle message to decipher. In "In the Garden," Adam asks a woman, "Eve?" She responds, "Sir, I'm Iris." After exhibiting a look of surprise, he responds, "Madam, I'm Adam," exuding an expression of supreme confidence. The pen-and-ink drawings give visual clues to the words. Even famous personalities, living and dead, or well-known logos cannot escape Agee's sometimes satirical pen. This book will invite students to join his comical, visual, and verbal train ride through the land of palindromes.

John Agee did not have a lot to work with here.
13. September 2009
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
I love palindromes. This is probably the Jon Agee palindrome book I like the least. "Go Hang a Salami I'm a Lasagna Hog" and "So Many Dynamos" were a little more complex and more entertaining. I love Jon Agee's drawings but in "Palindromania" there was less good material to work from, I believe. Still fun to have and to share with others.

Palindromania: More excellence from Jon Agee
31. Dezember 2003
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
This book is 112 pages of entertaining cartoons of palindromes. Jon Agee creates whimsical one to four panel stories in which all sentances are palindromes (the same forwards and backwards) and then illustrates them to bring them to life. If you enjoy palindromes, this is the perfect item for you.

A whimsical, fun gift for the English major
10. Januar 2003
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
Palindromes form different words when considered from left to right or right to left (e.g., dog/god). This zany collection provides words or phrases which read the same forward or backward, pairing the zany phrases with entertaining comic strip cartoons. A whimsical, fun gift for the English major.
