This title features in our Reading Gladiators™ selection.

Poems to make you laugh, get you thinking and fill you with wonder - from one of the best-loved poets writing today. 

I travelled once around the world on stars with flaming tails, And touched the colours of my dreams Along some silver trails.

Look out for best friends, pancakes, and Grandad singing; discover a river dolphin, a poison dart frog and the most dangerous animal in the world; imagine a talking nose, meet the Zimbats of Zingley Dell and find the colour of your dreams.
