Nice! I used to be a reading teacher, so I have lots of children's books. I thought about using those and now might just have to go back and write another one.
The Witch In Every Woman Turning Life Into Fiction... so cool.. and yeah.. it is more difficult than one would think.. gave me a hard time as well doing this
I understand "Silence In The Snowy Fields" - Love what you did with the book titles. Kinda cool actually and I think I would read #1 Worst Class Trip Ever :)
I can understand the difficulty in trying to find meaning within the constrains of book titles, but here you've managed to find a subtle, dark humor to animate all of these brief aphoristic compositions. Well done.

Lots of dark humour here - my favourite kind ... smiles. And that would have been the #1 worst class trip ever!

Liked the way you showed the images in stanzas too.
Very versatile phrasing.
