We Are Poets!

entry picture

Zingedy! Dingedy! Bingedy! Bong! Limericks, rhymes, poems and songs. Awarding winning poet and performer Helên’s much anticipated collection for 7-11 year olds, "We are Poets!" is available now. With illustrations by Paul Neads.

 
 The We Are Poets! anthology features a selection of children’s poems ranging from the floor filling anthemic action poem: 'Everybody Everywhere Stomp Your Feet!' to the calming chill-out poetry of 'Memory Beach'. The book showcases a variety of poetic styles including narrative verse, limericks, rap and there’s even a villanelle in there, but don’t ask me to explain how it works! The poems introduce a wide range of fantastic characters including rock-star silk worms; obese fruit bats; myopic professors and lots of naughty, grubby, scabby children!

"This book of young people's verse will have your sprogs agog with humour both cheeky and endearing. The right side of risky and just a little frisky 'We Are Poets!' promises mirth and learning from the offset."

I got my copy in the post this morning and have hardly stopped smiling since. I've read it from cover to cover and love it!"
