Story 47: Eat This Book

Shriek for joy when you wake up

Turn your breakfast into makeup

Jump on the bed like a trampoline

Cave dive in the washing machine

Go exploring in the trash can

Make a hat out of the saucepan

Make a pillow of the puppy

Use his tail to fish for guppies

Climb to the top of Mt. Mommy

Dress up with peas and pastrami

Use the bathtub as a dance floor

Go spelunking in the sock drawer

Search for sunken treasure in the toilet bowl

Make a snowball of your dinner roll

Ride the cat down Living Room Way

Turn your dinner into a game of Kitchen Croquet

Swim on the floor and slide down the stairs

Swing like Tarzan from every last one of Dad’s hairs

Use the sofa as your own personal piggy bank

Commandeer the coffee table and make your toys walk the plank

And just before bed, be a cookie jar crook

If you’re still hungry, after such a long day, eat this book
