This Book
By Avis Harley

This book is the best –

I woke up to read it

Before getting dressed.

This book is so cool –

It’s the first thing I grabbed

When I rushed in from     

    school.

This book is a winner –

I forgot I was hungry.

I almost missed dinner.

This book is just right –

I’m reading by flashlight

    deep into the night

Deliciously thirsty to see how

    it ends.

Books are such mind-thrilling

Spine-tingling friends.
