Maybe Dat's Your Pwoblem Too

Poem recommendation, starring Spiderman with a speech impediment:

I read Jerry Hall's "Maybe Dat's Your Pwoblem Too" to my kids yesterday, and they loved it! I'm not accustomed to having a classroom of students laughing at something related to Language Arts, but yesterday, they were! I practised beforehand and had the NY-speech impediment accent down.

"I can't even/buin my suit. It won't buin. It's fwame wesistent!"

My quest:

If you have any funny poems/stories/articles that I can share with my students, please send them my way. These kids have amazing senses of humor, and with the lives many of them lead, they need to laugh. Not to mention that it makes learning (gasp!) fun.
