If I Met a Tiger (I’d Let it Eat Me)
A brand new collection of brand new poems, written by me and illustrated with a great verve of squirrels by the mesmerisingly brilliant Magda Brol.
Ever wondered what you’d actually say to a tiger? Or what a beetle is thinking as it scouts your kitchen floor?
Step into the weird, the wild and the wonderful with these laugh-out-loud funny and brilliantly thoughtful poems. From the majesty of the wide world to the mysteries of your own back garden, this is for anyone who’s ever suspected that animals know a lot more than they’re letting on.
(That’s the blurb on the back of the book, and does actually sum it up pretty well.)
This book contains 76 poems about nature, the environment, the season, the wind and rain and mud and penguins and squirrels and squirrels and squirrels, and what humans are doing to the world. It’s a book of nature poems with jokes, absurdity, actual facts and bit of thinking on the side.
To order a signed copy (by, me, AFH), click the link below. It's £8.99 in the shops, but you can get from me for £9.00 on the nose, including UK postage and packing (for overseas postage, contact me first).
It’s actually published in November, but I do have some copies now which I will send you straightaway!
