BRILLIANT!!!

I think Mr. Watts is quoting from the wrong edition. This is a very enjoyable book, though, and always interesting to flip through. A lot of the poetry is quite impressive, while still remaining a youthfulness to it. Probably my favortie book of poetry to flip through.

A Holy Book

An excerpt from page 90, attributed to one Jarod John Hogan:POOR FAT MANThere once was a man who was so fatThat he couldn't fit through the door. Poor fat man.He tried to sit down but the sofa broke. Poor fat man.He tried to go on top of the Empire State Building.That didn't work, he fell right through. Poor fat man.He tried going on the Rocky Mountains.The mountains fell to the ground. Poor fat man.And then he tried going on the Titanic.People say that it didn't sink because of an iceberg.It sank because of him. Poor fat man.AUTUMN, by Brandon Hansen, page 51:Autumn is very pretty.Autumn is the prettiest time of the year.If there is a prettier time of the yearSomeone must of worked very hard.Erin Hailey, age 10, writes of CHRISTMAS on page 57:There is snow up to the sky.There is reindeer flying up high.There is a boy running around.Santa is lying down.
