Naughty Boy: A Song About Myself

"A fine, child-friendly introduction to Keats by way of one of his most accessible works."—Kirkus Reviews

There was a naughty boy
A naughty boy was he
For nothing would he do
But scribble poetry

John Keats wrote “There was a naughty boy” in a letter to his younger sister in 1818. It is the word and sound play of a young man who would become one of the immortals of English poetry. Grant Silverstein’s wonderfully spirited illustrations bring the classic poem to life for young kids and their grown-ups.
