Despite obvious differences, they still share a similar, anything is possible in a sugary world of imagination.

My mother read his poems to me, & I to my daughter. Little Boy Blue is especially poignant I think, but this one you shared is so clever, sweet and his rhythm is soft. Thanks Tabatha, and for the beautiful illustrations too!Linda Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14983144542632353870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-91636461349673530.post-45982320116418743152013-12-20T08:29:08.595-05:002013-12-20T08:29:08.595-05:00Oh I love that chocolate cat and gingerbread dog (...Oh I love that chocolate cat and gingerbread dog (but probably should have eaten breakfast before reading this!)
