Praise for Elvis Lives!

"Be prepared for a little giggling in the library when readers discover Agee's collection . . . The black-and-white cartoons are an integral aspect of the humor . . . Charming, well executed, and fun."-- Starred, School Library Journal

"In this latest effort to unravel and reconstitute languages, [Agee] demonstrates how letters can be rearranged to produce new meanings and pumps up the humor with pen-and-ink cartoons . . . Agee -- who must be one heck of a Scrabble player by now -- creates a sketchbook of sorts that exposes words' hidden secrets."-- Publishers Weekly

"In the olympics of verbal gymnastics, Agee takes the gold."-Booklist
