Kids are read cataracts Of utterly killable Books of hard facts In words of one syllable Which would better be ground into dust by the feet Of the beasts in this book about Mulberry Street.

The book's about Marco. Its style is so brisk-o That children will hark-o From Saco to Frisco When good parents read it. So buy it. Kids need it.
