I miss Amy Krouse Rosenthal. I know she can't read this review, but I still want to send this out into the universe: Amy Krouse Rosenthal didn't think like other people; she was fresh and alive and fun and fascinating and remarkable.

This was her first published book. It is probably not her strongest book, but, hey, I'm delighted that I discovered it. It's a jumble of useless and endlessly entertaining little facts all arranged in lists of eleven items.

Let me say it again: I miss you, Amy Krouse Rosenthal.
