Welcome to some great children’s poetry. In fact great poetry for all the family. Quercus Publications is a small UK publishing business specialising in children’s poetry. We supply schools, retail outlets and individuals with our books and resources. The high quality of the poems selected, and their huge variety, is sure to bring pleasure to children and adults alike.  
 
Take a look at our set of four delightful children’s poetry books, Quercus Poems for Children. Inside you will find old and new favourites from the best of children’s poets: poems which appeal to all age groups, ideal for use at home or in school.
Remember “The Owl and the Pussy-cat” and “Puppy and I” – those enduring classics? What about Kit Wright’s “Dad and the Cat and the Tree”?

 
 
There are many more treats in store. Some by Michael Rosen including “You Tell Me”, his amusing version of the football scores. Some by Christina Rossetti who provides gems such as “Hurt No Living Thing” and “In the Bleak Mid-winter”. Some by Eleanor Farjeon who gives us “Cats”(sleep anywhere!) and the wonderful story of “Mrs Malone”. And each with their distinctive treats are Alan Ahlberg, Charles Causley, Roger McGough and June Crebbin.  
 
Attractively illustrated, and presented in a child-friendly way, the books will bring lasting pleasure and delight. Here’s what June Crebbin says about the collection:

“…delightful anthologies. I’m sure children will find each anthology a treasure trove, containing as they do, so many memorable poems on a wide variety of themes.”

 
 
Teachers – you may like to look at our popular Key Stage 2 Poetry Pack. It’s full of more great poems, well illustrated and with accompanying lesson notes. Ideal for literacy sessions.

Parents, teachers and children – be sure to visit our edition of The Pied Piper of Hamelin. We think it’s the best little version you can buy.
