the quiet world by jeffrey mcdaniel
another favourite poem.
LMNOpets are a line of collectible toys based on the alphabet. Each pet is a different species of animal and contains the maximum amount of cuteness scientifically possible. You can feel good about making friends with LMNOpets because each pet is 100% recycled. They are also non-toxic which is probably more than you can say about the friends you have now.
