A detailed and very personal guide to reading and writing poetry by
one of the country's leading children's poets. Over many years as a
working poet, Michael Rosen has thought a great deal about what
poems are, what they can do and the pleasure that comes from
writing and reading poetry. In this invaluable handbook, he shares
this knowledge and experience in book form for the very first time.
Starting with a detailed analysis of a number of classic poems, he
offers a real "writer's guide" to writing and performing poems, as
well as a wealth of technical information and tips. He then takes a
fascinating look at a selection of his own poems and explains how
and why he wrote them. Complete with an appendix of poets and
useful websites, and beautifully illustrated by award-winning
artist Jill Calder, this is the only guide to poetry children and
teachers will ever need.
