Just how I remembered it !

My father asked for this book for Christmas as he mentioned to me before it was his favorite as a child. Reading through the pages it also brought me back to my childhood.

Family bonding time and nostalgia

My 6 year old has recently started to read and I felt encouraged to try and do some popcorn style reading so nostalgia led me to purchase this poetry book and it has been so sweet taking turns picking a page number and sharing the poems with each other. It's been really fun finding some I remember from my time growing up in the 90s.
