Why the author wrote this book:

Ever since my dad first started reading to me from the Oxford Book of English Verse when I was a child, poetry has always been a major part of my life. I have read it and created it with great joy. When my children were growing up, I created fun and silly poems for them. Over the years, I have written many poems for children and decided to compile them in this book. I trust that the poems in POEMS FOR WEE ONES will delight the children reading them as much as I delighted in creating them.
