The Poetry World of John Agard

Top poet John Agard's own selection of over 80 of his poems written between 1988 and 2001, now again available in this giftable hardback collection. A towering figure in the poetry world, especially children's poetry, John Agard has chosen poems from eight collections (all now out of print) originally published between 1982 and 2001: I Din Do Nuttin; Say it Again, Granny; No Hickory, No Dickory, No Dock; Laughter is an Egg; Grandfather's Old Bruk-a-Down Car; We Animals Would Like a Word With You; Come Back to Me My Boomerang; and Points of View With Professor Peekaboo. Over 80 poems are included, reflecting the range of his interests, ideas and styles, and above all perhaps, his awareness of being a British-Caribbean writer in an increasingly multicultural society.
