The 38 poems in this popular beginning reader anthology are simple, short, and rhyming. Topics include kid-friendly subjects such as pets, vehicles, cooking, and space, with plenty of silliness to spark giggles. Nice introduction to poetry for small children. I wish libraries (at least the ones I've used) had a better system for making 'non-fiction' more appealing - the only time we ever go down those rows is when writing a research paper and that's just not right. This was recommended to me - now I see that I'll have to check out what else is on the 811.54 shelf.... ‘These thirty-eight poems offer beginning readers a chance to try some verse. With drawings that pack a lot of action, a friendly book that will connect with everyday lives and lend a little music along the way.’ —BL.
