Blast Off!

Down the Cobbled Lane
Is where I love to go,the bumpy way at the terrace backs,to bang the dustbin lids, chase cats,scale walls, look over gatesat what I shouldn''t know,that''s where I love to go. Blast off on an exciting journey into space, the past, fairytales with a difference, zoos, pet shops, Australia, under your bed and, above all, into the imagination.
Ten, nine, eight...

Blast Off! is aimed at 7-10 year olds but lower secondary school children will also enjoy the poems which are varied in subject matter (fairytales, funny poems and serious poems, poems about school and bugs and Christmas angels and pets and siblings, about moving house, space, football, friends, marbles, musical instruments and magnesium).

There are riddles and clerihews and rhyming couplets, short poems, long poems and everything in between. Here you will find poems to curl up with on your own, poems to share at bedtime and poems crying out for audience participation and performance.
