I got this e-mail
From:Stuart Alexander MacLean
Mr.Munsch. My name is Stuart. I am 7 and live in New Brunswick. We moved from Newfoundland because my Dad is a mountie...
My mom was helping me read your poems, we laughed.....Mom says you should make some poetry books. They would be funny reading in the car. I am visiting my Nan. She writes books too. But she likes to write poems better and she likes to color with me.
So I made this poem for Stuart:
My dad is a Mountie.
We’ll soon leave the county
And also the province to.
But why it is so
I just do not know.
Perhaps it’s what bad guys do?
And since my dad’s job
Is to catch those who rob,
He travels the country through.
