Unabridged (100% Original content) Font adjustments & biography included Illustrated The Rocket Book by Peter Newell "When Fritz, the Janitor's bad kid, Went snooping in the basement, He found a rock snugly hid Beneath the window casement. He struck a match with one fell swoop; Then, on the concrete kneeling, he lit the rocket and—she—oop! It shot up through the ceiling."" Long before Richard Scarry or Dr. Seuss, an American author delighted a generation of children and their parents with hilarious, topsy-turvy illustrations and slightly subversive tales told in rhyme. This was author Peter Newell. Originally published in 1912, The Rocket Book remains as profoundly enjoyable and incredibly popular as ever. This classic work will delight readers of all ages with the story of how a rocket launched from the basement floor of an apartment building and how it interrupts the day."

    The Rocket Book THE BASEMENT When Fritz, the Janitor's bad kid, Went snooping in the basement, He found a rocket snugly hid Beneath the window casement. He struck a match with one fell swoop; Then, on the concrete kneeling, He lit the rocket and--she--oop! It shot up through the ceiling. FIRST FLAT The Steiners on the floor above Of breakfast were partaking; Crash! came the rocket, unannounced, And set them all a-quaking! It smote a catsup bottle, fair, And bang! the thing exploded! And now these people all declare That catsup flask was loaded. SECOND FLAT Before the fire old Grandpa Hopp Dozed in his arm-chair big, When from a trunk the rocket burst And carried off his wig! It passed so near his ancient head He roused up with a start, And, turning to his grandsons, said, "You fellows think you're smart!"

    The Slant Book Where Bobby lives there is a hill-- A hill so steep and high, 'Twould fill the bill for Jack and Jill Their famous act to try Once Bobby's Go-cart broke away And down this hill it kited. The careless Nurse screamed in dismay But Bobby was delighted He clapped his hands, in manner rude, And laughed in high elation-- While, close behind, the Nurse pursued In hopeless consternation An Officer slid off the lid As Bobby hove in sight, And bellowed out, "You're scorchin', kid-- I'll run you in all right!" But down the Go-cart swiftly sped And smashed that Cop completely, And as he sailed o'er Bobby's head Bob snipped a button neatly! A funny Son of sunny Greece Was standing near the curb, Beside his push-cart, wrapped in peace, That naught could well disturb But all at once he got a shock-- The Go-cart speeding down, Collided with his fancy stock And littered up the town! The runaway then swerved a bit And snapped a Hydrant, short; Which accident proved quite a hit Of rather novel sort The Water spouted in a jet As much as ten feet high, And all were soaked and nearly choked Who chanced to be nearby!
