You Read to Me, I'll Read to You

“The thing about a shark is-teeth, One row above, one row beneath.”

Here are thirty-five poems -- poems about white mice and cool drinks and the teeth of sharks, stories about the day Mommy slept late and about bird-brains and Arvin Marvin Lillisbee Fitch, and even a checklist of things to think about before being born. So pull up a chair, make yourself comfortable, and get ready to laugh. by John Ciardi, Edward Gorey
