Description

In this, her third collection of poetry for children, Carol Ann Duffy brings a contagious, whirling energy to all she surveys. Whether it is the heroes of rock and roll, stray giantesses and Queens, the husband of the Loch Ness monster, or a girl who falls into a cavernous jam-jar - with secrets and spells, songs of unrequited love, confessions and pleas, she envelops them all in an irresistible dance of rhythm and rhyme. Rock 'n' Roll and poetry collide in a book that every good - and bad - child deserves.
