Book description
Are you pink and green?
Are you totally obscene?
Can you pick your nose?
With your stubby little toes?
Let your imagination run riot and laughter fill your belly as you
explore traditional poems, rhymes with a twist, and subversive
playground favourites in this playful treasure chest of verse.
Michael Rosen is one of the best known figures, not only in the
children's book world but also the British arts scene. His first book of
children's poems was published in 1974, and he has gone on to write
numerous and award-winning children's poetry books, picture books and
non-fiction such as
Quick, Let's get Out of Here
and
We're Going on a Bear Hunt
. Alongside this he performs, teaches, lectures, presents
Word of Mouth
on Radio 4 and reviews books for the
Guardian
. In 2007, Michael was appointed the fifth Children's Laureate - a role
which he says will be used to be an "ambassador of fun".
