Description
A charming anthology and the definitive collection of over 80 animal-themed poems by much-loved English poet Pam Ayres (b.1947). From dogs and cats to farm animals, rabbits, birds, insects and sea creatures: poems mixing playful observations with poignant reflections. Full of character, warmth, wit and whimsy, Ayres’ poetry celebrates the wildlife which has inspired her imagination and draws upon life and loss experienced with beloved and many pets. Includes ‘In Defence of Hedgehogs’, ‘The Pike in the Pub’, ‘Ode to a Jack Russell’, and ‘A Moon Bear Song’. An atmospheric selection of verse with words for every mood. Many of the poems are decorated with delightful colour illustrations by contemporary, Wales-based artist Ellie Snowdon. Includes introductory notes and an index by creature.
