If truth be told, that child wept
For one and thirty days.
For one and thirty nights he kept
His parents in a daze.

"The baby's sore," she smiled at them,
"And I can hardly blame him;
He'll still cry and cough up phlegm
As long as you don't name him."

In Anything But Hank! Rachel Lebowitz and Zachariah Wells combine the whimsical humour of Lewis Carroll with the adventure-narrative balladeering of Robert Service to spin an unforgettable tale of a baby -- and a pig! -- in search of a name. Their quest takes them from the city to the mountains, as they seek an audience with the Wizard and his baby-naming Mexican beaded lizard. The story, accompanied by the gorgeously lush paintings of Eric Orchard, is a delight for readers of all ages.
