Let's make this birthday one to remember.

63 years old (Born on February 20, 1962)

Happy birthday, Kenn Nesbitt! Your poems have sparked laughter and imaginations like no one else's—you're practically the Shakespeare of schoolyard chuckles. Congratulations on continuing to bring smiles to kids everywhere; we suspect that even rhyming dictionaries blush in admiration whenever you pick up your pen.

From being honored as Children's Poet Laureate by the Poetry Foundation in 2013, you've kept enriching young minds with each clever verse—you’re basically a poetic superhero minus the cape (though feel free if you'd prefer wearing one). May this year rhyme perfectly with happiness, health—and hopefully fewer bouts of writer's cramp!
