From the fantastic duo behind Poems Aloud and Smile Out Loud comes
another compendium of 25 original confidence-building poems to read
out loud which will show children that their voice has FANTASTIC
power. From multi-award winning poet and Waterstones Children's
Laureate Joseph Coelho comes 25 more brilliant, sparkling and truly
original poems for children, specially written to help build
confidence, develop speaking skills and help foster self-belief.
The collection contains mantras to be true to yourself, to help you
feel brave, project happiness, conjure a smile, make you laugh or
cheer others up. Some are odes, some can be said as personal
mantras or just poems that instil confidence and help children
realise the power of their voices. Reading these poems aloud will
teach children the power of a poem, encouraging them to explore the
magic of language and foster a love of verse. This book follows on
from Poems Aloud and Smile Out Loud, the hugely succesful books
from Joseph Coehlo,illustrated in beautifully vivid colour by
Daniel Gray-Barnett. These books have inspired thousands of young
readers at home and in classrooms to speak up and love the power of
their own voice. "Poetry for children is dead. Really? Not when
there are young poets like Joseph Coelho" -Books for Keeps "A fresh
new voice in Children's poetry" - Roger McGough
The #1 New York Times bestseller Dreams are today's answers for
tomorrow's questions. Eleven-year-old Kofi Offin has dreams of
water, of its urgent whisper that beckons with promises and
secrets. He has heard the call on the banks of Upper Kwanta, where
he lives. He loves these things above all else: his family, the
fireside tales of his father's father, a girl named Ama, and, of
course, swimming. But when the unthinkable - a sudden death -
occurs during a festival between rival villages, Kofi ends up in a
fight for his life. What happens next will send him on a harrowing
journey across land and sea, and away from everything he loves. Yet
Kofi's dreams may be the key to his freedom...
