“Oh, for a nook and a storybook. With tales both new and old. For a jolly good book
whereon to look. Is better to me than gold.”— Old English Song.
April is National Poetry Month. In honor and celebration of the largest literary celebration
in the world, I’ve compiled a list of 26 of our favorite poems about books, of course
books. These inspiring poems will take you into the fascinating world of books, only to
have you return with a book or two inside you. They are simple, short, and fun for
readers of all ages. All you have to do is dive through the pages. If, even
still, you’re unsure of what’s in store; rest assured, they’ll leave you yearning for
more. Take a look!
I Opened a Book
By Julia Donaldson
Read to Me
By Jane Yolen
Read to me riddles and read to me rhymes
Read to me stories of magical times
Read to me tales about castles and kings
Read to me stories of fabulous things
Read to me pirates and read to me knights
Read to me dragons and dragon-book fights
Read to me spaceships and cowboys and then
When you are finished- please read them again.

Open A Book,
By Jane Baskwill
Open a book
And you will find
People and places of every kind;
Open a book
And you can be
Anything that you want to be;
Open a book
And you can share
Wondrous worlds you find in there;
Open a book
And I will too
You read to me
And I’ll read to you.
Good Books

There is a Land
By Leland B. Jacobs
There is a land –
A marvelous land –
Where trolls and giants dwell;
Where witches
With their bitter brew
Can cast a magic spell;
Where mermaids sing,
Where carpets fly,
Where, in the midst of night,
Brownies dance
To cricket tunes;
And ghosts, all shivery and white,
Prowl and moan.
There is a land
Of magic folks and deeds,
And anyone
Can visit there
Who reads and reads and reads.
What is a Book?

Books
By Helen H. Moore
A grandma, a grandpa,
An uncle, an aunt –
(Can you think of anything better?
I can’t!)

Storyboat
By Bobbi Katz
It’s time to read a story,
so climb aboard with me,
and we can sail a storyboat
across a magic sea.
We can visit jungles
or rub noses with a bear.
We can visit anyplace
and sail to anywhere.
We can learn a lot of stuff
from sailin storyboats –
like how to ride on elephants
or how skinks got striped coats.
We can meet a bunch of kids
that we’ll be glad to know,
and when the summer gets too hot,
we’ll sail in seas of snow!
