Free to Good Home

From "A Woolly Mammoth on Amelia Street: Read Aloud Poems4Kids" By Todd St. Pierre



Would you like a Woolly Mammoth?
My dad says, "He has to go!
We cannot afford to keep him!"
...Gosh, I'm gonna miss him so!

He accidentally smashed Mom's car,
And ate the washing machine,
Then he dug up all Dad's roses
And destroyed the trampoline!

Oh, he's really not a bad pet!
He is cuddly and he's cool!
He is just a little clumsy,
And likes peeing in the pool!

I will really, really miss him!
He has been a lot of fun!
And I love him in spite of
All the damage he has done!
