Junior Voices, Four Poetry Anthologies by Penguin Education, edited by Geoffrey Summerfield. S/C.

Jonah was an emigrant, so says the Bible tale,

Who booked himself a passage in a transatlantic whale;

But Jonah in the bowels of the whale was sore oppressed

So he simpy pressed the button, and the whale he did the rest.

Poetry was never this much fun when I was at school! Children - and adults - would enjoy these refreshing, whimsical, lively collection of poems as much as a big bucket of ice-cream ... or maybe a big bucket of Kentucky Fried Chicken. And there are eye-candy too - evocative drawings, photographs and copies of old paintings.
