April 13, 2015Mary Anne Hoberman: "The Folk Who live in backward town." It tells of being upside down and other opposites. It would be a great poem to talk to kids about opposites.
Jack Prelutsky: "I wonder why dad is so Thoroughly mad." The poem tells of silly things the boy did to his father. The irony of it creates humor.

We bought this when my daughter was small and we loved reading a poem a night before she went to sleep.
