Suggesting this zoo hold a meeting on zoom
Was not sensible, wise or astute
For the sloths all appear to have frozen onscreen
And I think that the swan’s stuck on mute.
Read about slugs, dogs and bats – or ghosts, grandads and lions in love; discover a feisty Rapunzel and how to deal with bullies. Find a class teacher who runs the marathon, the talented, kind kids in Yellow Group - and learn the first rule of poetry – have fun!
This is a really exciting, varied collection from one of the UK’s most popular poets – a brilliant performer in schools and at festivals.
"A treat for poetry lovers, veering from serious silliness to heartfelt and tender rhymes. Tom Morgan-Jones' quirky, retro illustrations will appeal to children and adults alike. Dougherty's playful approach pokes fun at poetic conventions and creates a clever collection."
* The Irish Examiner *"This collection is a bestiary, with some clever, witty and thought-provoking poetry… Morgan-Jones’s
nimble illustrations are often delightful, putting wind in the sails of the verse...
Reluctant readers of poetry are likely to be engaged and entertained by this lively book."
