After reading the document “How To Read Children’s Literature” I never thought about the implied reader being the children and the adult. I have always thought children’s literature was mainly focused on children being the only audience it was intended for. After being introduced to an adult as another implied reader, they have a larger knowledge base than the implied child reader. When I first read the poem I tried to read it in the perspective of a child and it worked out in two cases where the reader requires a “body of knowledge of literature and life”, called repertoire that adults had more of than children did. The first thing was how a cat and an owl cannot be seen together as partners. Such a relationship would be seen in a fiction story or a fantasy, but reading further int the document I remembered how different animals can be close despite knowing such a relationship would not occur. The second thing was the words runcible and bong-tree, and I never heard of these words and assumed they were made up words. I thought they were words a child would be curious about and ask someone older to tell them what the words meant. Obviously, I decided to look up these words after I finished the poem.
