You rip open the giftbox to find ...

The Terrible Toy-Eatin’ Tookle Awareness Campaign:
During the holiday season, many toys lose their lives to the Terrible Toy-Eatin' Tookle- lost under wrapping paper or set aside for shinier, newer toys.
Please, remember the toys. You can make a difference. You can save lives.

---

You don’t have to pick up your toys, okay?
You can leave ‘em right there on the floor,
So tonight when the Terrible Toy-Eatin’ Tookle
Comes tiptoeing’ in through the crack in the door,
He’ll crunch all your soldiers, he’ll munch on your trucks,
He’ll chew your poor puppets to shreds,
He’ll swallow your Big Wheel and slurp up your paints
And bite off your dear dollies’ heads.
Then he’ll wipe off his lips with the sails of your ship,
And making a bur pity noise,
He’ll slither away-- but hey, that’s okay,
You don’t have to pick up your toys.

Thank you, Anon! And don't worry, my toys are safe. Most of the rubbish on my floor is old school or lecture notes. The Toy-Eatin' Tookle is welcome to those, and I hope they give him indigestion.

Thank youanonymous for the cute toy and the adorable poem. Shel Silverstein was quite the writer

It's been awhile since I've read him
