Here is a poem I wrote based on "Too Many Elephants in This House" by Ursula Dubosarsky
There are too many elephants in my house
There's not even room for one little mouse
My mum said they have to go
But where to, I do not know
The zoo was full when I did try
And a plane full of elephants will not fly
Then I had an idea of what would be best
A house just for elephants at the very least
Two windows, a chimney and of course a door
And they can come out to play when I call
There's lots of room now in my house
Maybe I'll get myself a pet mouse.
I am also acting out "With Nan" by Tania Cox with 7 volunteers.
Nan (an apron)
Simon (cap)
Butterfly (scarf)
Frog (frog headband)
Lizard (headband and stocking tail)
Echidna (spiky wig)
Stick Insect (stick)
Owl ( headband)
