Shel Silverstein’s Poems • His poems are very silly • He does line drawings to go with them • If you have read Runny Babbit, they are tongue twisters • They are great for kids • They are fun for moms and dads too • They can be really long or really short • One is only 13 words
My favorite poems in this book • Rotten Convention • It is about rotten people • Obedient • It is about a boy who never listens • Allison Beals and her 25 Eels • It is about girl who uses eels in really weird but awesome ways
Reading Poetry • Poetry can be really tricky to read • Shel Silverstein makes it very fun • You can make up your own poems just using ideas from this book
poems His poem My poem • Little Pig’s Treat • Said the pig to his pop, “There’s the candy shop. Oh, please let’s go inside. And I promise I won’t make a kid of myself if you give me a people-back ride.” • The dead fly • The fly does not fly. It doesn’t even try. It doesn’t dance. It doesn’t sing. It doesn’t do no anything. Because I swatted it.
