It's an absolutely essential part of any reading diet. With On Poetry Street, Brian Moses provides teachers with 52 fantastic poems - one for every week of the year. The variety of themes and techniques opens the door to endless discussion and inspiration for children's own writing. Mark Elvins' brilliant black and white illustrations are so engaging, adding an extra element of understanding, humour, or intrigue to the page. Young writers and artists will feel compelled to emulate these wonderful drawings on their own poems. This anthology is a must-have for Key Stage 2 classrooms as a part of a high-quality poetry programme. It is also sure to be enjoyed as an independent or shared read at home. Let's encourage poetry books as gifts for readers of all ages!
