The Biggest Burp Ever, poems for kids by Kenn Nesbitt

November 30, 2014 by Jennifer

5M4B disclosure

the biggest burp everI love funny poems, and my 10 year old son and I have been a big fan of Kenn Nesbitt’s for a long time (see below for our thoughts on his other books). Since he’s moved into self-publishing, the covers have changed, but the poems haven’t. They are still funny and relatable. The line drawings inside are from the same illustrator who did the cover I assume, but in black and white, they look much less juvenile and are great accompaniments to the poems.

When my son began reading The Biggest Burp Ever: Funny Poems for Kids, he laughed (as always), and then called me over when he was reading “I Didn’t Go Camping.” This poem tells the story of all the things a child did NOT do over summer vacation and ends with “I didn’t become a guitarist or drummer, but boy I played plenty of Minecraft this summer.” After reading that, he had to share this with me: “I think Kenn Nesbitt knows me!! He definitely understands me!”

Isn’t that the way we want our kids to respond when they are reading?
