In honor of Dr. Seuss’ birthday this year, I was inspired to write the following poem inspired by a passage from One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish, a book my father used to read to me many times:
I took a look and saw a nook
And in that nook, there was a book
And so, I went and sat in that nook
and read, and read, and read that book
For a nook with a book
is a treasure indeed,
and books, my friend, are a pleasure to read!
