2008 Summer Reading Club - YA Catch the Reading Bug!

As I went cruising down the street
On warm and sunny spring day
You can never guess who I did meet
Flying just across the way

The reading bug was right there
Fluttering right beside me
He dipped and swayed through the air
He was quite a sight to see

His wings were filled with Shakespeare
Maya Angelou
James Joyce, Hans Christian Anderson,
And J.K. Rowling too

Aesop gave him his understanding of truth
And John Steinbeck supplied his face
James M. Barrie gave him his never-ending youth
And from Louisa May Alcott he received his grace

Lewis Carroll gave him his sense of time
Stephenie Meyer taught him about true love
Walt Whitman taught him how to rhyme
Jerry Spinelli helped him to understand what he was made of

The knowledge that this little bug had
Was too much for me to resist
And I knew that I wouldn't be glad
If a single piece of information was missed

I ran right after my reading bug friend
Because I knew I couldn't let him go
I finally caught him in the end
And instantly, my knowledge began to grow

If you would like to give this experience a try
You must listen to me
You need to catch the reading bug by
Going to your local library
