My teacher gave us homework

that has me quite perplexed.

He asked us all to bring to class

something we collect.

A fun assignment, but what if you don’t collect anything? Family members, friends, and neighbors have collections of their own. Is there time to start a collection? Or find an abandoned one in the attic? It turns out that sometimes the treasure you’re looking for is right in front of you . . .

Join the hunt in this story told through poems.
