Dr. Seuss wannabe

I recently had to write an illustrated children's story for a Teaching Language Arts class. This is what I came up with:


"A Bath or a Shower?"
Do you take a bath or a shower?
A shower is quick, but a bath takes an hour.
Well, if you ask me, I'd rather jump in the lake;
And not worry about how much time it would take.
But which makes you cleaner, that is the question.
Well, I am here to teach you a lesson:
That no matter which you choose, you're sure to be,
Spotless and fresh and perfectly clean.
When you are little, you get a bath from your mom,
So that she can clean you and help you some.
But when you're older and a little taller,
You take a shower so you use less water.
So whatever the reason, whatever you decide;
Just be sure that you're clean and dried.
And that you don't use all the water on you,
'Cause someone else needs to clean themselves too.
