Perfect for reading and sharing together, these poems remind all families what children already know: that life is filled with wonderful things - we just have to know where to look for them.

Excerpt from A SMALL CHILD'S BOOK OF COZY POEMS
illustrated by Cyndy Szekeres

Home! You're Where It's Warm Inside

Home! You're a special place;
You're where I wake and wash my face,
Brush my teeth and comb my hair,

Change my socks and underwear,
Clean my ears and blow my nose,
Try on all my parents' clothes.

Home! You're where it's warm inside,
Where my tears are gently dried,
Where I'm comforted and fed,
Where I'm forced to go to bed,

Where there's always love to spare,
Home! I'm glad that you are there.
