Eugene Ugrumov Lady and the Dog Take a Train

Annotation

The Lady and the Dog is a delightful poem about a woman who checks her baggage (including her small dog) at the train station, but is horrified to find a very large dog when she completes her journey! This story will be sure to get a chuckle out of all readers when they reach its conclusion. What Does a Mouse Fear? is a short children's poem exploring the interconnected relationships amongst a mouse, a cat, a dog, their master and his wife. It is a fun, clever, easy read that captures the imagination of enthusiasts of all ages. Both poems are well composed and balanced. Their cadence and rhythm make them easy to read, and their imagery and plot are creative and enjoyable.
