You Wait Till I'm Older Than You!

Benjamin Zephaniah

One of the coolest poets for children, Benjamin Zephaniah's Talking Turkeys has something to say! 
Talking Turkeys is the very first ground-breaking children's poetry collection from street poet Benjamin Zephaniah. Playful, clever and provocative, this is performance poetry on the page at its very best.

Talking Turkeys

Spike Milligan

A collection of the absurd, ridiculous, sublime and characteristically anarchic verse from the brilliant Spike Milligan. With his very own illustrations, this collection, which includes the famous On the Ning Nang Nong will make you laugh from the bottom of your belly - just like Spike did.
