Rhyme

Does anyone have any pearls of wisdom regarding a book done only partly in rhyme? Do you know of any books I could read which demonstrate this successfully?

Thanks

Classic fairy tales use this technique, of course ("Fee, Fi, Fo, Fum...") with modern spins like by Eugene Trivizas's "The Three Little Wolves and the Big Bad Pig".

The series of Franklin books by Paulette Bourgeois and Brenda Clark always open with the same rhyming line, leading into a new situation.

Hope that's of some use.

Alice in Wonderland comes to mind.

Re: Re:Rhyme

I do know, from having raised children, that they love rhyme and repitition.

Were I to write for children I would try to include it.

Think I'll mention it to my daughter, she wants to write a series of small children's books.
