Dad bought me
a sweatshirt
when we went
to the game.
It's warm
and it's red
and has
the team's name.
I wore it to school.
I wore it to play.
For a week I wore it
everyday.
Mom said, "This
needs washing,
it's started to stink."
Now my socks
and my undies
are all colored
PINK!
There is still time to enter your name in the drawing for a copy of GUESS WHO'S IN THE DESERT, Chaline Profiri's new rhyming riddle book about the desert.

The Zipper Ewe
The Zipper Ewe
lives at the zoo.
It runs and jumps
and bounces, too.
It climbs on rocks
to eat old socks.
It loves cream pie
and leaps up high.
It slurps beef stew
and marshmallows too.
It does all this
to entertain you,
when you come
to visit the zoo--
the funny Zipper Ewe.
Some days I just want to be silly, so I wrote a nonsense poem. The Zipper Ewe is an animal I made up. What do you think it looks like? I think it is a sheep with lots of zippers. Can you make up your own animal today? Can you write a poem about it? Have fun and I hope you can be a little silly today too.
