The Crocodile by Lewis Carroll

How doth the little crocodile

Improve his shining tail,

And pour the waters of the Nile

On every golden scale!

How cheerfully he seems to grin,

How neatly spreads his claws,

And welcomes little fishes in

With gently smiling jaws!

Hoop and stick was a game that your grandmother or great-grandmother might have played. This poem Miss Hooper's Hoop is about a girl who is just crazy for the game. She pushes her hoop until is seems like the hoop will just keep on going. Have you ever played a game so much that your parents had to beg and plead for you to stop?

That is what happens to Miss Hooper.
