Lynzie Anne Mc Kenzie was a very creative girl She made a macaroni necklace for her teacher Mrs. Pearl "That's the dumbest gift I've seen!" Laughed little Tony Maloney "Nobody wants a necklace made from macaroni!" "Stupider than Jupiter" said Tony with a smirk And Lynzie just ignored him cuz she knew he was a jerk. But Mrs. Pearl just loved it and she wore it every day So she bought a matching bracelet and earrings in late May Soon people came from miles around to buy what Lynzie made "A fashion craze invented by a girl in the first grade!" She sold 3 to Rosie and after the show was done She sold one to Madonna to wear on VH1 She sold a broach to the queen and a pendant to Vanna White Who wore it as she waved and smiled on TV every night From Timbuktu to Waterloo from what I understand Folks bought oodles of her noodles, her work was in demand. Featured on the shopping channel they sold out the first day Lynzie Mc Kenzie started a frenzy, what else can say? "Stupider than Jupiter," Tony's words were dumb and reckless, And Lynzie had the last laugh with her macaroni necklace! "Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind!"...Dr. Seuss |

This is so cute! I think I may have one of the necklaces in a drawer somewhere too! This poem is a great one for kids and has a nice little lesson tucked in it too! |

This one is really fun, Toddles! They probably laughed at the inventors of the pet rock, hula hoop and frisbee, too! We'll be adding a 0 to that total in no time! |
