Perfectly pitched for the very young, and a treat for grown ups too, here are a set of gorgeous first rhymes from award-winning poet and former Waterstones Children’s Laureate Joseph Coelho, selected from his bumper collection Blow a Kiss, Catch a Kiss . Each one encourages little ones to move and play, and there’s a lovely physicality to it all, as in the poems ‘My Favourite Food’, where we can hear the crunch and snap of apples and carrots, or ‘Kissable Cheeks’, full of hugs and squeezes from grandma and aunty.
Nicola Killen is the illustrator and her expressive, minimal illustrations teem with humour, reflecting scenes that will be familiar to all little children. A book that is sure to become a huge favourite and which will be shared over and over again.
A beautifully illustrated board book with selected poems by award-winning Children's Laureate Joseph Coelho, the second in the First Little Rhymes series. With poems and illustrations selected from Coelho and Killen's collection, Blow a Kiss, Catch a Kiss, this board book includes 10 charming poems all about what little ones may discover about themselves.
