That Ward was often too rough on The Beaver.

15. Angela Valentine has an extra toe, threw up in the cloak room (and no one would squeal on her), and lost the name plate from her bike at school.
Angela Valentine lost her Bite plate

She also ate library paste..............................LOL

42. Hunks of cake go good with hunks of milk.

fixed it

(Wally actually said that more than 1 time)

That Beaver thought copying a poem meant he was writing it. But there turned out to be some value in it all anyway, as Ward's model for a poem was what he followed, just changing the idea of being a bear to being a duck.

I would like to be a bear,
Gay and happy, free from care.
It's a life like no other;
Climbing trees with my mother [young bear cubs really do that LOL].
They call me beast with dreadful rage,
But I've never put a human in a cage,
Nor since the sands of time begun
Ever shot a person with a gun.

I would like to be a duck
'Cause mostly ducks have lots of luck.
They swim around all day in a pool
And mostly never have to go to school.
Then I saw a duck hanging in a butcher store,
And I didn't want to be a duck no more!

So, let's continue that pattern for a.....moose!

I would like to be a moose,
Always prowling; on the loose.
Growing antlers six feet long;
My mating call an off-key song.
Kicking hell out of another bull;
Eating till my belly's full.
But if by a wolf pack I'm surrounded,
Those other moose points become unfounded!
