Little ears as soft as silk
Little teeth as white as milk
Little noses cool and pink
Little eyes that blink and blink
Little bodies round and fat
Little hearts that pit-a-pat
Surely prettier puppies never
Were before nor can be never.
By Evalain Stein.
I liked the poem because I like puppies. I think that they are cute and friendly.
Hey, diddle, diddle,
The cat and the fiddle,
The cow jumped over the moon;
The little dog laughed
To see such fun,
And the dish ran away with the spoon.
This poem originates from the 16th century. We don’t know who wrote it.
Oliver thinks this is a funny poem because it’s all a bit crazy!! A dish can’t run away with a spoon, and dog can’t laugh, and a cow certainly can’t jump over the moon! That’s what makes it fun.
My hat is full of rabbits.
My cape is full of doves.
A playing card is up my sleeve,
and some are in my gloves.
A wand is in my pocket
with handkerchiefs and flowers.
My coat has things like ropes and rings
with mystifying powers.
I have my staff and juggling clubs,
my mirrors, cups, and dice,
my crystal ball, my smoke machine,
and fancy dancing mice.
I’m ready for my magic show.
There’s just one problem here…
My elephant is on my lap
and will not disappear.
You have a cute little nose
And happy wagging tail
You lick me when I come home
You bark because there’s mail
You sleep in my bed
And think my shoe is a toy
Sweet little puppy
You fill me with joy
Oh, little puppy
So loyal and true
I just want you to know
How much I love you

I like this poem because I love puppies and would like Father Christmas to bring me one this year.
It’s hard to see lions
when they lie in the grass
or deer among the trees
where they’ve trotted.
It’s hard to see rabbits
stood in a field,
but leopards are always spotted.
By Barry Buckingham
Adah liked this poem because the bit about leopards is funny
There once was a sad pig with a tail,
not curly, but straight as a nail
so he ate simply oodles of pretzels and noodles
which put a fine twist to his tail.
OUR PUPPIES
Little ears as soft as silk
Little teeth as white as milk
Little noses cool and pink
Little eyes that blink and blink
Little bodies round and fat
Little hearts that pit-a-pat
Surely prettier puppies never
Were before nor can be never.

I like this poem because it makes me laugh
Minnow go to sleep and dream
Close your great big eyes
Round your bed events prepare
The pleasantest surprise
Lullaby for the cat
By Elizabeth bishop
I like this book because I like cats
I like poems about cats because they are really cute when they are kittens
Puppy love
You have a cute little nose
And happy wagging tail
You lick me when I come home
You bark because there’s mail
You sleep in my bed
And think my shoe is a toy
Sweet little puppy
You fill me with joy
Oh, little puppy
So loyal and true
I just want you to know
How much I love you

My frog recycles all his trash.
He eats organic food.
He cares for the environment.
He’s quite the hipster dude.
Reduce, reuse, recycle
is the motto of my frog.
He drives a solar-powered car
to cut back on the smog.
He helps endangered species and
opposes climate change.
He knows that, since he’s just a frog,
this might seem kind of strange.
But still he does his very best
to keep our planet clean.
He thinks it’s only natural.
He’s proud of being green.
By Kenn Nesbitt
Charlie chose this poem because it’s he thinks it’s funny!
Higglety, pigglety, pop!
The Dog has eaten the mop;
The pig’s in a hurry,
The Cat’s in a flurry,
Higglety, pigglety, pop!
By Samuel Goodrich
I have a Rabbit habit.
I like to crunch and chew
On celery logs and carrot sticks,
And apple wedges, too.
I have a Rabbit habit
I like to chomp and munch
On crispy greens and juicy grapes
Mmm…rabbit food for lunch
By Liana Mahoney
Five cheeky monkeys
Jumping on the bed
One fell off and bumped his head
Mama called the doctor
And doctor said
‘No more monkeys jumping on the bed’
It’s hard to see lions
when they lie in the grass
or deer among the trees
where they’ve trotted.
It’s hard to see rabbits
stood in a field,
but leopards are always spotted.

Pig Limerick by Arnold Lobel.
There once was a sad pig with a tail,
not curly, but straight as a nail
so he ate simply oodles of pretzels and noodles
which put a fine twist to his tail.
