So enjoyed this lovely picture book which I know my five year old grandson will love. Thank you@Dale_Neal12 and โฆHB Publishing Houseโฉ for my prize!


We are pleased to announce that Anne & Brian Moses have joined the HB fam! Their new book is out next year & illustrated by Claire Lewis ๐ (working title), How green is your dog? A fun story in which dogs show young children ways in which they can help the environment!

My raspberry poem feels like a skipping rhyme (this piece by Teresa Cremin for ๐๐ก๐ข๐ฅ๐๐ซ๐๐ง'๐ฌ ๐๐จ๐๐ญ๐ซ๐ฒ ๐๐ฎ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ข๐ญ is worth a read!) Thanks for the prompt, The Toy - Submissions open childrenspoetrysummit.com/2025/05/08/terโฆ

I love #tanka and #haiku They are a wonderful way to teach children that the virtues of #poetry can lie beyond rhyme but not rhythm #poetrylovers #WritingCommunity #teachers Haiku Genius #poems4kids


You werenโt always drunk Dad Sometimes you lifted me up and put me on your shoulders to protect me from the salty waves of the old, cold sea Nacoa ๐

Wonderful poems and the fascinating stories that inspired them. A must-read blog post by Brian Moses

This #tuesdaytitleprompt from Poetry for Kids by Carl Burkitt caught my eye last Tuesday. As a teacher, I know that reaction when children see you out of school. I've been made to feel like a superstar in Sainsbury's and an alien in Boots. I went over the top for this one HeadteacherChat #Teachers
