DOWNLOAD EBOOK"Welcome my friends to the Upside Down House," a topsy-turvy place where anything is possible. Inside its wacky walls you'll meet a girl with a beard, a boy who never gets out of bed, a sword swallower, a pirate, a dinosaur who plays basketball, and the Grunk, who would love to take you to a dance-and maybe even have you for dinner. Find out what really happened to the three little pigs. Dare to ride your sled down Speedwell Street. Have lunch with Solid Stomach Steven, a boy who eats the grossest food imaginable, or watch a show with Jugglin' Joe, who juggles everything from soup, to staplers-to you! Not since Shel Silverstein has there been such an outrageously funny and thought-provoking collection of poems. The Upside Down House is truly a delight for all ages, and is guaranteed to keep you turning the pages!

DOWNLOAD EBOOKCome feel the cool and shadowed breeze, come smell your way among the trees, come touch rough bark and leathered leaves: Welcome to the night. Welcome to the night, where mice stir and furry moths flutter. Where snails spiral into shells as orb spiders circle in silk. Where the roots of oak trees recover and repair from their time in the light. Where the porcupette eats delicacies—raspberry leaves!—and coos and sings. Come out to the cool, night wood, and buzz and hoot and howl—but do beware of the great horned owl—for it’s wild and it’s windy way out in the woods!

DOWNLOAD EBOOK‘Funny but serious, accessible but rich in meaning, consistently surprising – the world looks slightly different after reading a Billy Collins poem. He’s a one-off, an American treasure’ Nick Laird These are poems of whimsy and imaginative acrobatics, but they are grounded in the familiar, common things of everyday experience. Collins takes us for a walk with an impossibly ancient dog, discovers the proper way to eat a banana, meets an Irish spider, and invites us to his own funeral. Facing both the wonders of being alive and the thrill of mortality, these new poems can only solidify Collins’s reputation as one of America’s most durable and interesting poets.
