Book Storm
From the book My Dog Likes to Disco
I wasn’t doing anything;
just lying on my bed,
when my dictionary tumbled down
and smacked me on the head.
Then Harry Potter toppled off,
and Judy Moody too.
I almost got knocked out by
Wimpy Kid and Nancy Drew.
Then Fancy Nancy whacked me.
All those Goosebumps were intense;
they landed with A Series
of Unfortunate Events.
So now I’m in a pile of books.
It’s something of a shame.
This never should have happened;
I have just my shelf to blame.
