There once was a girl who loved books before bed
A day without books simply filled her with dread
She read from the morning ‘till well after dark
In hammocks, on buses, a bench in the park
She read about spaceships, fairies and kisses
Daring sword fights and gun battle near misses
She never left home without something to read
‘A book in each bag!’ was her steadfast life’s creed
Her room was a lab’rinth, all chock full of books
They sprouted from crannies, full shelves, and all nooks
Although she has read far too much here to chart
Each one of these books has a place in her heart
A day without books simply filled her with dread
She read from the morning ‘till well after dark
In hammocks, on buses, a bench in the park
She read about spaceships, fairies and kisses
Daring sword fights and gun battle near misses
She never left home without something to read
‘A book in each bag!’ was her steadfast life’s creed
Her room was a lab’rinth, all chock full of books
They sprouted from crannies, full shelves, and all nooks
Although she has read far too much here to chart
Each one of these books has a place in her heart
