Zingedy bingedy bingedy bong!
I've got limericks, rhymes, poems and songs,
trees are for climbing,
and words are for rhyming,
Zingedy bingedy dingedy bong!
Limericks, rhymes, poems and songs. Awarding winning poet and performer Helên’s much anticipated collection for 7-11 year olds. With illustrations by Paul Neads.
The We Are Poets! anthology features a selection of children’s poems ranging from the floor filling anthemic action poem: 'Everybody Everywhere Stomp Your Feet!' to the calming chill-out poetry of 'Memory Beach'.
The book showcases a variety of poetic styles including narrative verse, limericks, rap and there’s even a villanelle in there, but don’t ask me to explain how it works! The poems introduce a wide range of fantastic characters including rock-star silk worms; obese fruit bats; myopic professors and lots of naughty, grubby, scabby children!
