This naani, Exploring Books, uses four lines and twenty-four syllables to get the young reader back into the world of imagination and learning.

Congratulations on second place in this contest. I love that picture :) All my friends are in books too. What a wonderful way of looking at it. I read to escape the real world. I'm grateful to the authors that create my getaway adventures.

Oh, you have a winner going on here! The overall presentation is absolutely grand. I love your poem because that's what we do when we open a book and start reading. What an adorable illustration you chose. I love your font style and size, making the whole of your presentation perfectly balanced.
Great contest entry!!!

I could relate to the words in your poem... how I loved to jump inside the pages of books as a child (and still do). A nicely formatted Naani poem. A solid contest entry. I hope you do well.

What a delightful endeavor you have in your Naani writing prompt entry . I wonder about the children now and in the future with their ipads and notebooks etc. Will they have the same experience of reading and finding "friends and their grand adventures"? I enjoyed your poem. Best wishes.

A very well-written Naani about exploring our books since an early age and how wonderful it is to have adventures with our old friends and sometimes meet new ones.

You capture the joy of reading eloquently in your illustration and verse. I especially like 'friends joining in the grand/great adventures.'

Had you asked for an edit suggestion, I would offer:

... waiting to join me in
their grand adventures.

Thank you for sharing your Naani poem (-:

Good luck with your entry.

I really like this Naani which should appeal to all ages, but especially children who love to read. May I suggest a slight change?
