The Poetry World of John Agard

By John Agard

A towering figure in the poetry world, especially children's poetry, John Agard has chosen poems from eight collections (all now out of print) originally published between 1982 and 2001: I Din Do Nuttin; Say it Again, Granny; No Hickory, No Dickory, No Dock; Laughter is an Egg; Grandfather's Old Bruk-a-Down Car; We Animals Would Like a Word With You; Come Back to Me My Boomerang; and Points of View With Professor Peekaboo. Over 80 poems are included, reflecting the range of his interests, ideas and styles, and above all perhaps, his awareness of being a British-Caribbean writer in an increasingly multicultural society.
