Michael Rosen and Quentin Blake

Two splendidly eccentric collections of poems, short stories, jokes and rhymes from a writer who is always able to tune into the tastes of children. Here, sixes to eights (and older readers) will enjoy these thematic collections. As always Blake's pictures are finely matched to the vigour of the text. These will be pored over in the classroom: lots of copies in the bookshop, please.
