From John Agard and Julia Donaldson to Nikita Gill, Brian Bilston
and Carol Ann Duffy, The Big Amazing Poetry Book is a brilliant,
accessible introduction to poetry and to fifty-two fantastic poets.
Introduced by Roger McGough, the book features the illustrations of
former Children's Laureate and beloved author of the Goth Girl and
Ottoline series, Chris Riddell. A warm, funny collection, this book
is packed with many different styles of poetry – ballads,
riddles, tongue-twisters, shape poems, haikus, sonnets and raps –
about seasons, festivals, animals, birds, love, war, food, fish and
football and much more. Each poet is showcased with seven of their
poems alongside a biography to give exciting, engaging context to
their work – plus a stunning line artwork on every page. A must
have for any young readers, The Big Amazing Poetry Book primarily
features work from twentieth and twenty-first century poets.
Included are John Agard, Brian Bilston, Lewis Carroll, Joseph
Coelho, Julia Donaldson, Carol Ann Duffy, Nikita Gill, Jackie Kay,
Roger McGough – and many more. '[A] warm, funny and imaginative
celebration of verse, and the ideal introduction to a mix of
diverse poets' – Lancashire Post
