This is a really clever book. The poet takes common fairy tales and tells the story in poems. But the poems are very unique. Each poem is then reversed and still makes sense. How creative is that? At the end, the poet gives direction about how to write reverso poems. Here is the first set of poems from the book.

says is
it's true- up.
down You

the only view? this poem
If you believe that, if you believe that
this poem the only view
will challenge is
you. down.
Up It's true.
