The Printed Page

Ah, the absolute amazing-ness
Of books, books, books.
Books tell stories.
Books record facts.
Books relate history
And how to make snacks.

They come in many a shape and size,
These books, books, books.
Books can be fat.
Books can be tall.
Books can be skinny,
And books can be small.

Oh, the many things you find
When you look in a book, book, book.
There are books about London.
There are books about space.
There are books about cartoons
And even how to race.

You can find a story about anything
In a book, book, book.
About a family and children,
About wizards and witches,
About sadness and sorrow,
Or about little fishes.

Unless you were born knowing,
History is learned from a book, book, book.
You learn battles.
You learn dates.
You learn cultures
And once living greats.

Suppose you want to make a snack, what to do?
Look in a book, book, book.
Books help make cookies.
Book help make cakes.
Books help make snow ice cream
And even chocolate crepe.

Oh the multitude of authors
Who write books, books, books:
Avi, Duncan, Keene, Babbit,
Cooney, Carroll, Baum, Tolkien,
Mitchell, Lewis, Lee, Homer,
Cleary, Steinbeck, Pierce, Rowling.

Oh how much time you can spend
Reading books, books, books.
Oh how many books there are
To read, read, read.
I’m done. I must go now
To my books, books, books.
