Critics Review
You can’t go wrong with a poetry book by Michael Rosen… It would be easy to go on enthusing about this book but instead I will finish by saying, just buy a copy; you won’t regret it. – Red Reading Hub * Jill R Bennett *
Perfect for its 8+ target audience, this would make a fabulous addition to any home or KS2 classroom bookshelf, with Hannah Robinson’s cartoonish illustrations that pop up within it adding to the book’s appeal. Additionally, with such a wealth of poems included, I will also say that this would make a brilliant choice for any school staff who would like to share a daily poem in class and don’t know where to start, with each one short enough to be included in the school day at some point without impacting on the timetable. * Mrs Sydney’s Famous World’s Smallest Library *
this book is a joyful celebration of one of Britain’s most beloved voices in children’s poetry. Perfect for readers aged 8+, this refreshed edition brings together some of Rosen’s funniest and most memorable poems… Parents will treasure the opportunity to share these timeless poems, and children will delight in the silliness, rhythm and irresistible humour found throughout. * Preneur World *
