Crazy Classrooms

Selected as A Book We Love:

Both funny and observant, this is a fabulous collection of poems by successful performance poet Paul Cookson.

Superb use of language, poems that really scan and rhyme - an excellent way to stimulate children to write their own poetry.

Every (poem) herein cries out to be read aloud but make sure you don't leave your copy lying around in a primary classroom; it's bound to be nicked.
