  Through his work as a performance poet Paul Cookson has learned what makes children tick - what really interests them, captures their imagination and makes them laugh. He also knows that their difficult questions can sometimes be addressed in an apt, thought-provoking verse. All this experience is reflected in this collection of brand new poems. It features many of the ups and downs of the child's life, both in and (mainly) out of school, with plenty for every 7 - 9 year old to identify with and enjoy.
