Best way to introduce poetry to boys without complaint!
Published by Jasmine A , 3 years ago
I homeschool, and every morning my 5 and 8 year old boys "warm up" by reading and writing a short verse or page out of a book like Fly Guy.
I've started to collect Lansky's poetry for this exercise because they look forward to reading and writing each one.
These are definitely for boys. My daughter never found them very funny but my sons won't stop re-reading the board all day long to giggle, and I love it!
Not sweet but very good

I'm prompted to write this review after reading the others. Yes folks, Lansky's topics are crude. Poop figures heavily, as does snot (in fact, that's the topic of my favorite poem in this collection). However, Lansky's poems are both funny and clever. They make my kids laugh out loud (and me too). If your sensibility is to fine to be crude or if you have moral objections to bodily fluids (and I suspect that is the case with the other reviewers) then this isn't for you. But, if you're looking for funny, readable verse that kids will like, this is a great one.
