Poodlums, Boogeymen and Booglers

Inside "Poodlums, Boogeymen and Booglers," A big sister convinces her little brother that a boogeyman lives under the bed. She also tells him that there are monsters living in the closet.
He knows for sure that the "Booglers" will come in the house if the doors are not locked at night. At another time, he sees "Poodlums" in the empty house down the street and runs home to tell his mother. She never did figure out what a "Poodlum" was. This little boy's inquisitive nature later gets him in trouble with an electric fence and his determination, to do what he's told, causes him to get dragged across an open field by a hunting dog. Within the pages of this book are many family-inspired poems. Every family has stories to tell. Some can be very humorous, while others, will break your heart.

"Huh" and "Poor Thing," proves there is humor in getting old.
