Poem for Children



Title: I’ve Lost My Hippopotamus
Author: Jack Prelutsky
Illustrator: Jackie Urbanovic

This book of poems includes more than 100 funny poems and silly pictures to accompany. A lot of the poems are about animals, some real, some not so real. This is a book of poems that I found to be adorable and so fun to read. I usually find poetry to be intimidating, confusing, and just painful to read. However, this book of poems turned my frown upside down and I had fun reading poems, laughing on every page.

Rating: 5/5 Hippos
This poetry book is perfect for beginning poets. It is a fun book to read aloud to the class or have available for students to read on their own time. It’s fun and creative and is sure to inspire some pretty big imaginations.
