This is a good presentation and I love the story as well as the lesseon taught in the end to parents as well as to children. Really good rhythm and flow as well.

Comment from Bill Schott
This children's poem, Nobody Like a Brat, has a funny and familiar theme of having to deal with a kid who has been indulged for too long. Nicely paced with a satisfying resolution.

Thank you for the review and comment. I appreciate your comments.
Comment from Katherine M. (k-11)
This is an excellent poem, in the old style of writing for children, i.e. judgmental with a moral. I especially liked the alliteration. Effective choice of words.

Yes, the need for boundaries - always a must in child-raising. Your entry is well written and insightful, and the rhymes flow smoothly. Good wishes for the contest.

Your contest entry reads well, Mystery Author. I enjoyed its smooth flow, good rhymes, and great message. Your monorhyme verse work well. The picture is a great pairing with your well-chosen words, too. Best wishes.

The author's words are extremely descriptive, interesting, have great
advise and are creative. The poem flows and connects well. I really
liked the way this poem was presented. The artwork is great and
compliments the theme and words of this poem.

This sounds like the perfect solution to Will's problems, all kids are different and there is no rule such as "one size fits all", this is beautifully written my friend, excellent rhyme, in mono form, an pentametric stanzas. Articulate and smooth, and a good entry, good luck, blessings Roy

Comment from Dolly'sPoems
This sounds like a spoilt child and sometimes we can make our children behave badly with our own behaviour. This is a poignant and philosophical write about a child who does not appreciate his life, but at least he was happy in the end, love Dolly x

That's a story with a happy ending! (The "kicking the dog" might really offend some readers! Stephen King got a lot of flack for having one of his characters do that. ) It's good that Willy reformed as well as his parents! Best wishes in the contest!

Thank you so much for the review and comments. I said kicking 'at' the dog but I've changed it to "growled at the dog and hissed at the cat" Maybe that won't offend pet owners too much.

That's a safe edit!
