Product Description

Product Description

Anne Fine is the 2001-3 Children's Laureate. A multi award-winner, she has collected poetry she feels it would be a shame for any child to miss. A SHAME TO MISS...1 is aimed at junior readers and is a diverse mixture of classic, well-loved poetry like Lewis Carroll's 'Jabberwocky' or Tennyson's 'Break, Break, Break' alongside poems from more modern poets like Kit Wright, Brian Patten and Diana Hendry. Other poets featured include Hillaire Belloc, Walter de la Mare, Eleanor Farjeon, Robert Graves, Kipling and many others: more than 70 poems in total.


From the Back Cover

ANNE FINE
Children’s Laureate 2001-3
Winner of two Carnegie Medals and
twice-winner of both the Whitbread Award and the Children’s Author of the Year Award
and a life-long lover of poetry, has chosen the poems she thinks it would be a shame to miss.
‘Many young people come to poetry through someone older with a passion for it. I’ve chosen these particular poems because they are the ones I really wouldn’t want you to miss. And I’ve tried to explain anything you need to know to enjoy them first time.’
Anne Fine
