All the best and most frequently requested poems from one of the UK's most popular poets

What is your favourite word? I like CRUNCHY and FIZZLE and TOAST, CARPET sure takes some beating, But I think I love LOVING the most. From cool boys and Year Six Sisters to the chicken school timetable; from Dad's terrible dancing to Mum's cunning treasure trail; dogs, hamsters, and dragons; sad times, happy times, love and togetherness - plus the joy and fun of poetry.

With themes of Family, School, Pets, the Wild, Being a Poet and Personal Favourites, this is an outstanding, exuberant collection of the very best work from one of the best-loved poets writing today.
