I Am a Poetato
I am a guillemot
I use my bill a lot
I get the fish out of the wet
I eat my fill a lot
Funny, witty, zany and thoughtful, this brilliant A-Z of animal poems will be loved by readers of all ages, including grown-ups.
Ants, (wise) camels, dogs, deckchairs, glasses, guillemots and Toby the Armadillo are all here, as well as the unusual unicorn in school. Presented in a unique scrapbook style, with the author’s own drawings, this is a hilarious and exciting poetry book – even for those who think they don’t like poetry!
