5.0 out of 5 stars my favourite poetry book!, 26 Oct 2003
By A Customer
I'm 7 years old, and this poetry book is very easy to read. There are funny poems, scary poems, silly poems and ones which make you think. I like picking this book up and reading it every now and then.
My favourite poem in here is Circus Elephant because it's quite sad. The elephant used to live in the jungle and has been taken to a circus. He really misses the jungle and wants to go home. This poem also gives you ideas as to what a jungle is really like.
