Kenny Woods: Hear Music
A Book Is My Best Friend
(Celebrating Read Across America)
(Kenny Woods)
From the forthcoming KennyKidsMusic! CD
Sometimes when there’s no one around
and I’m looking for some thing to do
like going on a trip to the Moon
Or fishing on a sailboat on the sound
and catching some of
the sunshine on the shore
I can do all that and so much more!

Chorus: A book is my best friend!
I’ll read it to the end
It’s so exciting I’ll say it again
A book is my best friend!
Cookbooks make my tummy growl
Pages full of food I’d like to try
Like blueberry and broccoli pie
A character in a book can be my pal
who just might be a pirate with a hook
let me turn the page and take a look!
Chorus
Chapter seven, page eleven
Lots of stories, I can read them
Sometimes I like to read them again and again…
It’s a pleasure and a treasure
You and I can read together
Sometimes I like to skip ahead to the end!
