Spreading sunshine and good vibes all around, this uplifting collection from the award-winning poet abounds in verse to build confidence, enhance happiness and cheer up all who read and hear it.
Waterstones Children's Laureate Joseph Coelho presents another brilliant compendium of poetry to read out loud and make you smile!
From the fantastic duo behind Poems Aloud come twenty-five original poems designed to be read aloud to project happiness, conjure happiness, make you laugh or cheer others up. Written by the award winning poet Joseph Coelho and illustrated throughout by Daniel Gray-Barnett: some are odes, some can be said as personal mantras or just poems full of words that you can't help but smile when you hear them.
This is a book for any child who wants to build confidence reading aloud, or wants a way to channel their speech and drama confidence. It is a book to foster a love of words and the power that comes with the spoken word. It will show children how speaking a poem aloud has a certain magic, almost like reading a spell.
Poems can be read aloud to an audience, muttered quietly to oneself or whispered in the ear of someone who needs to hear some cheerful words.
