Thidwick the Big-Hearted Moose


Title Thidwick the Big-Hearted Moose
Author Dr. Seuss
Call Number PS3513.E2 T45 2010
Location 3rd FL Education Library Muth Books (On display)
Rating Highly Recommended
Book Review Theodor Geisel has done it again
With a big-hearted moose and his wonderful win
Of great self-respect in the face of a dearth
Of dignity, honor, morale and Moose-Worth.

Thidwick thought best to host creatures as guests
Aloft his great antlers, so ample for nests
Until they grew heavy when myriad pests
Made Thidwick a doormat despite his protests.

Thankfully Thidwick grew wise and decided
Nice-hosting is nasty when guests are misguided.
So out they were ousted when Thidwick grew squirmy
And chucked them at hunters for prize taxidermy.
