There is a world that lives inside
the covers of a book
Where anyone who wants can hide
or peek or sneak a look
For in the world of make-believe
some words can set you free
Where you can stay or take your leave
or learn who you can be !
Now books are truly curious
they teach us many things
Some sad, some glad, some furious
some happiness that sings.
I do believe it would be bad
without a book to read
How could we know if all we’ve had
did fail or did succeed ?
