BUYING ADVISORY: GIFT - ADVISABLE; EL, MS, HS - OPTIONAL

APPEALS TO: SEVERAL

The boy is out … on his hippo?  …in the snow? Wait - there’s Robert Frost, trying to tweak the boy and the hippo back into fitting his poem.  But the boy, and the hippo, and the jungle have other ideas about what they see as a very boring poem. 

High alert gift idea for those Language Arts teachers in your life! Hopefully they have a sense of humor about poetry and Robert Frost in particular and will enjoy the byplay here.
