LaTeX suppress page break

latex

I'm trying to create a LaTex document which has a "testday" and a verse full of "testItemToDo" and I want any page break to occur before the "testday" but never between a "testday" and the verse of "testItemToDo". How can I modify my LaTex file

\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\LARGE
{*}{*}to do\\
\begin{verse}
{*}today\nopagebreak
\begin{verse}
testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo
\end{verse}
{*}testDay\nopagebreak
\begin{verse}
testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo
\end{verse}
{*}testDay\nopagebreak
\begin{verse}
testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo
\end{verse}
{*}testDay\nopagebreak
\begin{verse}
testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo
\end{verse}
{*}testDay\nopagebreak
\begin{verse}
testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo
\end{verse}
\end{verse}
\end{document}

Best Answer

Surround your testday and verse with a \begin{samepage} and \end{samepage}, i.e.:

\begin{samepage}
{*}testDay
\begin{verse}
testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo\\*testItemToDo
\end{verse}
\end{samepage}

This still allows the verse to break a page fine, provided you get rid of some \\*.
