In his first collection for younger children, well-known poet Brian Moses has provided a funny and witty snapshot of family life, with a bit of fantasy added in. Perfect for sharing at home or at school.‘A witty and varied anthology’
'Will encourage young children to enjoy and appreciate poetry'
Selected by Marilyn Brocklehurst as Children's Booksellers' Choice best books for May. 'These lovely books provide amusing, thoughtful and reflective poetry about aspects of family life and childhood.'

'Will encourage young children to enjoy and appreciate poetry.'
'A fun bedside book
'There's something for everyone in this compact book.'
‘ A collection (of children's poetry) should be fun, easily readable in language that youngsters can read and it should be laid out in a style that appeals to them to keep them reading and saying "One more and then I'll put the book down." This book does all of that.’
BRIAN MOSES has been a professional poet since 1988. He spends half his time writing and the rest of the time he visits schools across the UK and Europe, performing his poetry and percussion show. His poetry books include Behind the Staffroom Door: The Very Best of Brian Moses and A Cat Called Elvis. His solo collections and anthologies have sold over 1 million copies and he is featured on the National Poetry Archive. The Monster Sale is his first book for Frances Lincoln. Brian lives in a small Sussex village with his wife, their loopy labrador and a collection of bad-tempered chickens.
