JOSIE'S POEMS
BLEEZER'S ICE CREAM
By Jack Prelutsky
Then read my letter to Mr Bleezer about his ice cream. I hope he doesn't get too upset! . . . .
Jack Prelutsky was born the year before I was (1940).
It was a good time for the arrival of children's poets I rather think, especially those who like to write funny poems. I love his Bleezer's Ice Cream and I have written a follow-up letter to Mr Bleezer which I hope you'll enjoy too.
Although he claims to have hated poetry through most of his childhood, he rediscovered poetry later in life, and has devoted many years since to writing fresh, humorous poetry aimed specifically at children.
