Join our Poetry Street party and get creative! 
Do you like stringing words together to see what they look like and what they sound like? Do you have rhythms dancing in your head as you drift through the day? Do you rhyme all the time while your feet tap a beat? 
If you answered YES to all or most of these questions then you're pretty much hooked on words. 
Now - together - let's take a walk down Poetry Street! 
 

With an introduction to welcome readers and creative writing ideas, you will find fifty two poems for any week of the year. Accompanied by imaginative illustrations, this book is both the perfect gift and ideal writing manual for the classroom.

'This is an engaging read for children and adults looking to impart a love of poetry through the magic of laughter. The illustrations perfectly match the tone and wit of the poems and bring to life humorous pets, children, dragons and rock stars, among other delightful characters. Certain to make children and adults laugh at the clever rhymes and comedic tales within its pages, this book is a gateway to a magical world of words.' CHILDREN'S BOOKS IRELAND (INIS)
