Because a fire was in my head - Michael Morpurgo

A wonderful anthology of poems to set fire to the imagination.

We
only have to 'remember, remember the 5th of November' to see a dark
night filled with fireworks and bonfires. In their many different ways -
through their sounds, rhythms, stories, surprises and jokes - these
poems will set the fireworks crackling in our own heads.

Michael
Morpurgo has brought together poems by writers as diverse as Spike
Milligan and Louis MacNeice, Stevie Smith and John Lennon, Jo Shapcott
and Lewis Carroll. Once read, they won't be forgotten - some even beg to
be learned by heart. This is anthology will form the cornerstone to a
lifetime's enjoyment of poetry.
