You Can't Catch Me!

Michael Rosen
 Quentin Blake
(Puffin Books)
978-0140503807, RRP £4.99, Paperback
5-8 Infant/Junior
Buy "You Can't Catch Me! (Picture Puffin)" on Amazon

Twenty-two poems: a mixture of new ones and younger children's favourites from the author of the two enormously popular books Mind Your Own Business and Wouldn't You Like to Know, illustrated in colour by Quentin Blake. Yes, it certainly does appeal to those who aren't quite able to cope with the longer books but addicts seem unable to resist it either. A worthy winner of this year's Signal Poetry Award and if by an chance you haven't yet come across this super book, rush out and buy a copy straightaway.
