    About this ebook

    The poems are very different from what you will usually find in a book of children’s poetry. While a few are very funny, all have a special purpose: to teach the meaning of “difficult” words like gravity, infinity, space, etc. poetically so children can understand them. Their vocabulary will grow extensively by the time they’ve finished the book. Under the guidance of teachers, parents will be especially impressed.
