Happy Birthday,
(April 13, 1938)
(I think it most appropriate that Lee Bennett Hopkins
--aka Mister Poetry Man--was born in the month of April.)
A star danced
and under that
was I born.
~ William Shakespeare

Hooray for Lee! Yes, it was definitely in the stars that he was born in April :)!
Happy Birthday, indeed! He's done so much to further the enjoyment of children's poetry.
Dear Elaine:
Thank you for this post.
I miss laughing with you.
I'm off to dance the jig ... in your honor.
Hugs. Lee www.leebennetthopkins.com
