There's an old saying: "If wishes were horses, we'd all get a ride." But what if wishes were schools of fish? What if they were prides of lions, or pods of dolphins? What kinds of wish could you get from those?
This illustrated fantasy poem is a lighthearted romp through the animal kingdom and the names of their groups.
For ages 3 to 9.

SAMPLE
"If wishes were horses, we'd all get a ride!"
That's what you'd hear if your wish was denied.
But when I consider, it leaves me perplexed --
If wishes were animals, what could come next?
If wishes were fishes, whose groups are called schools,
I'd wish that the teacher would sink all the rules.
Or a passel of possums, the jills and the jacks,
I'd wish I could hang out with them to relax.
If they were flamingos, whose group is a stand,
I'd wish for good balance, and strength in my hand.
If wishes were elephants -- called a parade --
I'd wish for a clown and some pink lemonade.
