Title: There's a Wocket in My Pocket
Author: Dr. Seuss
Publisher: Random House www.randomhouse.com
Publication Date: 1996
Genre: Picture Book
Audience: All
Overview: This is a short story about a little boy who talks about all of the strange creatures that he finds in his house. This is a rewrite of the original version that was published in 1974. The new version does not include some of the scarier creatures that were in the original.
Activity: Every line in this book is a rhyme. It could be used in a lesson where you are teaching the students how to rhyme or how to write rhyming poems. You could read this book aloud to the students and then have them write a short rhyming poem about some of the things that they could find at home or in a classroom. They could also draw a picture describing their poem and the creatures that they may have found. I think that all of these rhymes can really help the students to understand how to rhyme and can be a fun way of having them come up with some on their own.
