Michael Rosen's Big Book of Bad Things

A wonderfully exuberant yet poignant poetry collection from one of Britain's greatest children's poets Michael Rosen. Some poems are funny, some are sad, there are longer story poems and poems to ponder, such as how great would Satnav trousers be! Former Children's Laureate, Michael continuously promotes the need for children's poetry in our education system, and this collection, first published in 2010, continues to delight readers young and old.
