Discovering how to make good choices Book

This book of poems is written about things around the house from the perspective of a child. Most of the poems are fairly short, however easy to comprehend. My favorite is "the sock eater," a poem about the dryer as a sock thief. The illustrations are very vibrant and add to the richness of the poems. Some poems are written it a particular shape, like the one about the pictures on the wall is written in the shape of a frame. It is a book I would use in my early elementary classroom to teach students about poetry.
