And the illustrations from Katy Riddell will focus on the fun and dreamlike quality of the poems' engagement with the natural world.
These poems use rhyme, rhythm and free verse and are ideally suited to performance in a school setting, nurturing a love of language, reading, confidence and self-expression.
