[LM_NET] hit: poem

[Nancy <butterflymoon20022002@YAHOO.COM>]

thanks to everyone who helped me with the poem: 
the more you read, 
the more you know.
 the more you know,
 the smater you'll grow.
 smarter you grow,
the stronger your voice,
when speaking your mind
or making your choice. 
 
i have several who claimed it is from dr. Seuss "reading with your eyes closed" 
which is true part of the poem does  appear in the book  but i also had several 
point me to Jim Trelease where the poem appaears as part of a much longer poem. 
Also a few told me that the poem appears on posters and book marks with no author 
given credit for the words.
 
I gave credit to both potentional authors and bought the poster and bookmarks.
Thanks everyone,
Nancy Goodrich
