Ideal for children as young as 3 to read with adults, or for children aged 5-7 to read by themselves.
If . . . you still think, ' I don' t like poetry,' this might be the collection for you: Joshua Seigal' s very imaginative and wonderful collection. * The Times on ' I Don' t Like Poetry' * When you read this book, the windows will burp and the grass will turn blue. That' s how magic these poems are. * Michael Rosen on ' I Don' t Like Poetry' * This is a great collection of genuinely funny poems and they' re refreshingly original for older primary kids, reflecting their lives and interests. * BookTrust on ' I Bet I Can Make You Laugh' *
Joshua Seigal is a poet, performer and workshop leader who spends his time visiting schools, libraries and theatres around the country and beyond. His book I Bet I Can Make You Laugh won the 2020 Laugh Out Loud Book Awards (the UK' s only prize for funny children' s books), while I Don' t Like Poetry was shortlisted in 2017. He has taken critically-acclaimed poetry shows to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, but usually ends up performing in front of his mirror, using a hairbrush as a microphone. He has managed to gain the minimal skills required to make his own website - www. joshuaseigal. co. uk. Sarah Horne grew up in Derbyshire and spent much of her childhood scampering in the nearby fields with a few goats. Sarah has illustrated for many different projects including an ad campaign for Kew Gardens, assignments from the Guardian and Independent newspapers, and character design for Sesame Street and IKEA. Sarah now specialises in funny, inky illustration and words for children' s fiction and picture books. She loves funny detail, nature, colour, music and wide open spaces.
