A second irreverent collection of poetry for children touching on anything from vegetables to the Queen and from sewage to the sun. There's plenty of humour as well as poems on racism, pollution and the murder of a cat.

Only recently discovered by me (through Monty Don's series on crafts), I bought three volumes of Zephaniah's poetry and devoured it one afternoon. I am so impressed and keep returning to it. If you don't already know his work, please try some - you are in for a huge treat!
