101 Poems: The Puffin Book of Poetry for Children (Paperback)

Poems from five continents spanning five centuries
No other form of art can capture the range and diversity of human experience in the way that a poem can.
In these pages, you will find poems about
an itch,
an afternoon of play,
the joys of surfing the Internet,
the fear of an injection,
going on a picnic,
buses, holidays, racial discrimination
frogs, rats and lizards
and almost anything you can think of …
This lively and inspiring collection of poems for children is an introduction to the variety and sheer joy of poetry.
