Here is a book of poems to take with you to a desert island.   Learn them and they become part of you.  Say them out loud and they sing to your soul

Highwaymen and naughty children, sharks and baboons, the Snitterjipe and the Jabberwocky, all have their part to play. 
 
Each and every poem in this treasure chest of family favourites was chosen by a child for other children. 
 
With poems from William Wordsworth and Christina Rosetti to Roald Dahl and Michael Rosen, there really is something for everyone. Classics to savour and new favourites to discover! 
 
This is a classic anthology to treasure forever.
