All Together Now

Exuberance is the keynote in this varied, full-of-surprises collection from a poet renowned for her fun and inventiveness. Michaela Morgan is adept at putting an original twist on a familiar theme or situation, creating the kind of pleasure-shock that children love. Here you will find a performance poem on how to perform a poem; and fresh takes abound on topics such as food, monsters, animals, friends ...There are poems on some special people, including Mary Anning, fossil finder; Walter Tull, first black professional footballer; and Malala Yousafzaia, hero of our times. Inspiration, laughter and encouragement run through these pages, perfectly matched by Nick Sharratt's masterly illustrations.
