  9. My mom used this poem to discourage my T.V. watching and I have to say that it worked.

  10. Those are GREAT! But I'm not going to let my kids see them. They'll want a pair as pets.

  11. Hahaha, I will be joining the Jedi squirrels by the end of this challenge!
    I think the girl in the cover is at peace.
    And Jimmy Jet is good to teach little children a lesson about watching too much TV.

  15. Jimmy Jet was always one of my favorite poems growing up :) Shel Silverstein is an amazing story teller, humorist and illustrator!

  17. I remember "Jimmy Jet." In my brain, I tend to get that one jumbled up with the Mike Teavee song from "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory." No doubt, Silverstein and Dahl were in one another's rolodexes!

  18. Thanks for visiting my blog, returned the favor and will be back. Loved the poetry, strikes close to home, and the jedi squirrels. I think I see their cousins fighting in my yard.

  19. The Jedi Squirrels are really hilarious...

  20. Jedi squirrels really would be terrifying. There aren't many places they can't get to and they can be pretty sneaky as it is. Imagining them with light sabers.... yeesh.

  22. If squirrels were Jedi, that'd be it....there wouldn't be a safe walnut on the planet! :)

  27. Great poem. There is a day or two that comes around that I could be him. Those are my veg/lazy days to clear my head of the other crazy/busy days. :)

    Hey, I think my relationship with squirrels is just fine. I'd be among the survivors of that revolt!

  28. Great post! Thanks for visiting my blog and good luck with the rest of the A-Z Challange.

  29. I love your poem. At first I didn't look closely at the illustration and I though Jimmy was one of the watchers. Then as I read, and looked again . . . fantastic.

    Thanks for checking out my AtoZ.
