World of books…
What is in a book?
That makes it a treasure?
Hidden in its pages,
Are riches without measure…
Tales of king, queens, and castles,
Fairies and witches' magic…
Of creatures in land and sea,
Of birds with such mellow music…
You can be sad or satisfied
By reading a book…
You can travel far away,
Yet stay in a hook…
The book is a magic carpet,
To distant lands,
To cities and forests,
and shores of silver sand…
What is in a book?
Stories of clowns and sages!
Behind those little words,
Are the lessons of the ages…
