(3) K-3 Illustrated by Carol Koeller. "I don't want to clean my room! / It looks fine to me." Each of the book's fifteen humorous poems describes a kid-friendly household chore: making the bed, taking out recycling, helping with laundry, etc. Koeller's lively illustrations show kids of different ethnicities as they bemoan the woes of clearing the table and celebrate the fun of washing the dog.
