Howard the bookworm
Loves to eat books.
Under your bed
Is the first place he looks.

It’s hard to turn pages
When one is so small.
If your books are left tidy
He can’t eat them at all.

He climbs open pages
And eats his way down.
He will eat every word
Be it adverb or noun.

If you leave your books open,
Thrown about without care.
You may find in the morning,
That Howard was there.
