Runny Babbit and Friends

A couple of weeks ago, I had my girlfriend Felicia and her two kiddos over for a BBQ.  Of course, it was a good time — hamburgers/hot dogs, s’mores, sparklers and more!  Anywho, Destiny (Felicia’s daughter) brought a few of her library books in and I was tickled silly to see one of them by Shel Silverstein.  He was a wonderful children’s writer (unfortunately, he passed away in 1999) — I love his books.  A couple already in my library include The Giving Tree and Where the Sidewalk Ends.  One that Destiny had with her and I had not heard of was called Runny Babbit.  In the world of Runny Babbit and his friends, they speak a topsy-turvy language all their own.  For example, one of his friends name is Toe Jurtle (Joe Turtle) and another Skertie Gunk (Gertie Skunk).  I chuckled at the cute humor and headed out to the local Border’s bookstore the following week to pick up a copy.  I’d like to make you smile and share one of the little poems with you:

His Kajesty, The Ming
Runny wanted to be a king,
So he crot himself a gown.
He then put on a rurple pob
And strutted up and down.
He shouted to his friends, “Dow bown,
Dow bown and riss my king!”
But everybody laughed and said,
“Oh stop, you thilly sing.”

Loooove it! Isn’t that the cutest?  For all you mommy’s out there — you must purchase atleast one of Silverstein’s books for your children’s book collection.  You won’t be disappointed.  Let’s continue our journey… living and laughing!!

keep living and laughing, friends.
