Loved this comment by Susan:
The Goops they lick their fingers
And the Goops they lick their knives:
They spill their froth on the tablecloth
Oh, they lead disgusting lives!
The Goops they talk while eating,
And loud and fast they chew;
And that is why I'm glad that I
Am not a Goop, are you?
What's a goop, you ask?
Check it out on Wikipedia.
Here's another one.
- When you are playing with the girls,
- you must not pull their pretty curls;
- if you are gentle when you play,
- you will be glad of it some day!

ReplyDeleteOh my gosh.....I had an old nursery rhyme book when I was a kid, and it had The Goops rhyme in it....with pictures of elf-like creatures running crazy all over. I think the book was from the 40's and it had amazing illustrations throughout..... fun!
ReplyDeleteCongrats Karen! It is a great book. Today my boss said to me, 'I think I need to order every charm pack that comes out, I know you will buy them'. Duh...I always do.
ReplyDeleteThanks for reviewing those books.
Happy stitching.
Congrats to Karen.
ReplyDeleteI have a book that I bought for my kids that is an illustrated edition of that Goops poem. I think it might be longer, too. I wonder if I could still find that somewhere?
