A funny, heart-warming and thoughtful sequel to The Dictionary of Dads, by a brilliant poet, who performs in schools and theatres across the UK.
Justin Coe is a poet, writer performer and spoken-word theatre creator who specialises in work for young audiences. He enjoys school visits and spent four years working as a poet in a school for children with behavioural and emotional difficulties. Justin's mission to reconnect people with poetry and poetry with people. A regular and popular performer in schools, theatres and community settings, he has entertained everywhere from Sheppey to Shanghai and from the Savoy Hotel to street corners, steam trains and a sitting-room made entirely out of newspaper. In the last decade, since relocating to Southend and becoming a father, he has also written and performed seven spoken word theatre shows for young people. His recent show Big Wow Small Wonder (about the joys of being the smallest boy in school) is produced by Half Moon Theatre in east London and continues to tour to venues nationally. He is the author of The Dictionary of Dads (Otter-Barry Books, 2017). Justin lives in Southend-on-Sea, Essex.
Steve Wells is a prolific illustrator, perhaps best known for his cartoonish style which has enriched many children's books, including Justin Coe's previous collection, The Dictionary of Dads. He lives in Bath.
