While surfing the net I came across this great song.
These Books are Your Books
(sung to the tune of Woody Guthrie's "This Land is Your Land")
These books are your books,
These books are my books,
From Huckleberry to the dictionary.
We won't abuse them
Or ever lose them.
These books are here for you and me.
We'll read the story
Of our nation's glory
From pioneer wagons to shuttle stations
From Davy Crockett
To the Saturn rocket
These books are here for you and me.
You'll laugh with Ribsy,
And cry with Yeller,
Watch little Charlotte
Amaze the barn lot.
Your heart will pound for
A dog named Sounder.
These books are here for you and me.
Your school library
Has information.
It's a celebration of imagination.
It's great to borrow,
Do it tomorrow!
These books are here for you and me.
Unfortunately, the professor who put it on her webpage does not know who
wrote it. She believes that she got it at a conference and probably from a
school librarian. If anyone knows who the author is, please e-mail me.
By the way, there are a couple of poems and some good links on the same
page. http://www.pampetty.com/reading.htm
