Poetry Friday is hosted today by Writing the World for Kids.
For Poetry Friday: "I Didn't Do It" by Patricia MacLachlan and illustrated by Katy Schneider.
Puppies rule in MacLachlan's collection of fourteen free-verse poems
that share a puppy state of mind. A poem titled Rules begins: "No lick! / No bite! / No
jump. / No bark. / No fun". Verses
touch on an assortment of puppy-related topics: names, playing in the rain,
capturing wriggling critters to present to owners, and that puppy favorite -
sleep... I'm tired. / Being born / is / very / hard / work.
My favorite..."What Did I
Do??". I'll let you explore the book and discover the answer.
Illustrator Schneider's assortment of puppies are captured in a variety of entertaining poses.
