Product Description

Michael P. Spradlin (outrageous words) and Jeff Weigel (eye-popping illustrations)—the seriously twisted minds that brought you the New York Times bestselling Christmas carol tome It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Zombies and Every Zombie Eats Somebody Sometime, a book of Zombie love songs—have arisen once more, this time to devour Mother Goose raw! Jack and Jill Went Up to Kill is a hilarious volume of zombie nursery rhymes designed to tickle the (exposed) funnybone of every World War Z, Shaun of the Dead, Zombieland, Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, and The Walking Dead fan on either side of the grave!

Cute For Horror Lovers
by Courtney Toombs (4 out of 5 stars)
June 11, 2015

I purchased this book as a Christmas gift for my friend to read to her daughter & she adores it!

I think it's really cute, especially for people who are into horror. This provides a cute way for horror lovers to introduce their children into the genre with twisted little nursery rhymes. The illustrations are adorable & the writing is nice.

cute quick read
by Sharon Stogner (3 out of 5 stars)

This same person wrote the It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Zombies Christmas Carols which had incredibly clever parodies. Definite 5 star book. So I thought I would give this one a try. It wasn't as good as the Carols. There were a few nursery rhymes that were pretty funny, but most seemed forced.

Nursery Rhymes Zombie Style
by NA (4 out of 5 stars)
April 10, 2012

I bought this book a few weeks ago and it arrived very quickly after purchase. It is smaller in size than I originally thought, but that doesn't really matter. It's a cute/funny item to have on our bookshelf. For the most part the illustrations are on the right side of the book with corresponding altered nursery rhyme on the left side.

An okay add to the zombie collection

A little disappointing. The illustrations were not in color and as good as they are, would have looked so much better if they had been. The cover looks pretty cool though. Good to add to my collection for the price.

Great Art Work
by Jody Lewis (5 out of 5 stars)
January 20, 2013

First saw this book at the Library, got it and loved it and the art work! My son realized that the book was written and illustrated by the same people who did Every Zombie Eats Somebody Sometime and It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Zombies. I have 2 of these and want the last one also.It's on my wishlist!

Eh.

Some of the rhymes made me laugh and some of them just made me wtf?

I gave this a four because not all the nursery rhymes, rhyme. Some of them don't make any sense.

Funny as hell.

A bit more gore than humor
by Batfan7 (3 out of 5 stars)
August 22, 2012

Perhaps I just don't have the right sense of humor for this book, but I didn't find it all that funny. It described graphic gore in sometimes too vivid detail and ended up making me feel a bit disturbed. I think it would have improved things with more variety rather than solely focusing on zombies...but that's just me. I will admit that I'm impressed with the creativity in re-imagining so many nursery rhymes, and it's well crafted with drawn illustrations for all (or nearly all) poems.

Buy if you have a sturdy constitution and find brain-sucking endlessly hilarious, otherwise you can safely skip this one.
