Reviews
“Good books of humourous poetry for young children are rare, but Floyd the Flamingo by Tiffany Stone can be counted among this exclusive company…Stone has a delightful sense of the ridiculous” Winnipeg Free Press
“In a world that largely makes no sense, making nonsense makes sense. Stone’s finger-snapping, toe-tapping verse is witty, reflective and wise. It dances off the page, straight to the heart of any reader.” Sheree Fitch, author of ‘If I Had a Million Onions’
