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”?

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 Allan 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.” |
