Name of Poem ?

[dcannon]

When I was 7 years old I had to learn part of a poem for a school assembly and to this day I still remember it and would love to know what poem its from and the rest of it :-

Do you Think Aunt Em, and Lou and B,

And Sir Henry Dorner KCB

And the elderly Uncles and kind Aunt Jane

Will go to tea with the children again.

Please help me

Is it this one by Elizabeth Godley..

By far the naughtiest children I know
are Jasper Geranium James and Jo.

They live in a house on the Hill of Kidd,
and what in the world do you think they did?

They asked their uncles and aunts to tea,
and shouted in loud rude voices 'We

are tired of scoldings and sendings to bed:
now the grown-ups shall be punished instead.'

They said 'Auntie Em, you didn't say thank you!'
They said 'Uncle Robert, we're going to spank you!'

They pulled the beard of Sir Henry Dorner
and put him to stand in disgrace in the corner.

They scolded Aunt B, they punished Aunt Jane;
they slapped Aunt Louisa again and again.

They said 'Naughty boy!' to their Uncle Fred,
and boxed his ears and sent him to bed.

Do you think Aunts Em and Loo and B
and Sir Henry Dorner (K.C.B.)

And the elderly uncles and kind Aunt Jane
will go to tea with the children again?

How did you know, because even when you put author in on google it doesnt say much and I could never find the whole of the poem. I took it to my mum to see at lunch and she was amased because she remembers it because she helped me learn my lines. :-)

This poem is titled "Extremely Naughty Children". It's in an old book of Childrens Poetry which I have had since I was a child in the 50's.

You know I think my teacher must have had it too. :-)

This poem appears in the 1932 book "Green Outside" by the aforementioned Elizabeth Godley.
