Rapunzel is a Lettuce

Poems to Grow With

By Joseph Coelho

Illustrated by Shirley Hottier

'Poems to Grow With' – because children are not all the same and often like to turn back the simple, fun poems they first discovered, but might also like something a bit more challenging. The key thing about this unique new collection from the ex-Children's Laureate is that these are all poems that speak to their young readers, matching their moods and understanding, and offering discoveries.
