Bookseller Michelle B calls this her favorite poem ever. It's by five year-old poet Veronica Markey.
Pretty is Hard
Let's dress up as pretty people today
Let's start right now
It's going to take a long time
Because pretty is hard.
This poem can be found in Pretty is Hard: Poems About Shoes, Chocolate, and Best Friends, published by Arundel Books in 2004. To purchase, email books@tatteredcover.com.
