WINNER OF THE CLPE POETRY AWARD 2016
This engaging, award-winning collection is the perfect way to inspire a love of poetry and reading in the very youngest children. Silly, fun and energetic, these are poems designed to be read aloud and for kids to join in. From toys and games to animals and made-up creatures, the world of young children is explored in hilarious ways, all accompanied by colourful illustrations. Written and illustrated by a pair of former Children’s Laureates, this is a special and timeless collection to be treasured by the whole family.
Michael Rosen’s close and affectionate observation of small children and the way they think is brilliantly captured […]Chris Riddell’s illustrations created an equally warm-hearted view of the early years and capture the spirit of the poems perfectly. * Julia Eccleshare, LoveReading *
With repetition and jollity, this collection of short poems will provide hours of special shared moments. The illustrations are beautifully observed, too. * Baby London *
