It’s the most wonderful time of the year—back to school! But to my great confusion, Spider tells me that some children actually dread heading back to the classroom! (As a lover of learning, I was simply mystified by this information!)

If you're literally counting the days till next summer, you'll adore this unique book of poems, riddles, and puzzles. It keeps you counting from day one to "school’s out!" with a poem for every school day. If you stick to the schedule and read one poem per day, you’ll come across festive poems at the right time of year (Halloween, Kwanzaa, Easter, Ramadan, President’s Day, and many more). Or perhaps you'll love the book so much that you'll zip through all 180 poems in one sitting! I must warn you, however, that speed reading will not zip you through to the last day of school!
