From the fantastic duo behind Poems Aloud comes another compendium of poetry to read out loud and make you smile!
Twenty five original poems from award winning poet Joseph Coelho designed to be
read aloud to project confidence , conjure happiness, make you laugh or cheer others up. 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.
