'Did you know, you can bump into a poem anywhere? You find them in houses, fields, oceans, cities, trees...the list is endless! I've even found poems in people's faces, when they laugh or cry, or get excited. Of course, you have to write the poems you find, because poems can't hold a pen or type on a keyboard.
This book is full of poems I found when I was looking out for them. I had to dig some out of my imagination - ouch! You'll discover in the pages some things that I think should be in a poem, but I'm sure you can think of more. Go hunting!' Coral Rumble's warm, vibrant, exciting world of poems is complemented by Shih-Yu Lin's expressive colour illustrations.
'A charming poetry book, with vibrant illustrations. Perfect for introducing new poetic styles and fun layouts.' - UKLA
