Three Little Nutcrackers

Every year my crazy familyHides inside the Christmas treeOne warty little pickleMade of plastic, colored green.And on every Christmas morningThey hold a competitionTo find that hidden pickle;It's their holiday tradition ...Full of wit and rhyme, goofiness and good cheer, this collection of merry, madcap poems by Paul McDowell will have the whole family chuckling and-just like the majestic Christmas pickle-will quickly become a silly, dilly holiday tradition.
