      I want to win this because the kids in my family are in the 4-10 years old range that this book is geared toward and I don’t think they have an children’s books of poetry in their library. The fact that the poems are nature-themed, humorous, and colorfully illustrated makes this book sound like something they would really enjoy.

      I have a Niece which I have given to her the nickname of “Chuckles” and it would be so neat to be able to give this to her as she would live up to her nickname of “Chuckles” and Smiles from her laughter and her smiles that have touched my heart from this sweet little girl that I proudly call my Niece.

      I love this book and when I was teaching I would of loved to read this book to the lower grades. I would love to share this with my grandson and granddaughter as it would being so much joy. These two kids are in Ca and they have went thru a lot with their mom thank goodness my granddaughters dad (my daughters former boyfriend) stepped in and stopped the madness and both kids are living with him and he loves it. He has brought my grandson so much chuckles and smiles plus joy that he is wearing a smile with every picture that is taken. I am going back to Ca to visit soon we had a trip planned then covid stepping in and stopped us but as a surprise I would love to present them with this book. Thank you for the chance to do that!

      I have a grandson who is 4 and is quite a hoot. He is quite the problem-solver and he is always coming up with some idea on how to solve problems. Lately, a lot of them include the use of a rope. He makes our day quite often.
