My Dog May Be a Genius
Jack Prelutsky (2008), 160 pages
Illustrated by James Stevenson
Audience: Preschool - 4th Grade
Did you know that Jack Prelutsky's poems can be sung to well-known tunes? The only problem is figuring which one. As you read them out loud, you may notice that the beats sound familiar. My favorite poem can not be completely written here. Here is the shortened version of 'Call of the Long-winded Clumsy Owl.' Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooops!
