Students will enjoy this poem about a Terrible Toy-Eatin' Tookle who gobbles up toys at night. The point of the poem is that we need to pick up our toys before we go to bed or the Toy Eatin' Tookle will sneak in at night and eat up your toys. This poem is in classic Shel Silverstein style with its fun words and unusual creatures. (1:02)

This is a live performance of the 10th Anniversary Concert of Les Miserables. While the singers are in costume, this is not a stage production of the musical. The orchestra and singers are both on stage together with the orchestra behind the singers. This is a very interesting live concert production with occasional excerpts of footage from the stage production. The picture quality is good and the sound quality is excellent. The performance is sung in English with English captions. (3:43)

This video contains text commentary. (2:27)
