Reach for this book when your child is feeling the weight of daily expectations or struggling with the messy, unspoken frustrations of family life. Michael Rosen captures the authentic voice of a child navigating the world, offering a collection of poems that range from hilariously petty sibling squabbles to the quiet, private thoughts children often hide from adults. It is the perfect choice for a child who feels misunderstood or needs to know that their 'naughty' thoughts or weird observations are completely normal. This classic collection uses conversational rhythm and sharp wit to explore themes of frustration, curiosity, and the desire for independence. While the setting reflects a mid-1970s British childhood, the emotional core is timeless and universally relatable for kids aged 6 to 12. It serves as an emotional mirror, validating a child's inner world while providing a bridge for parents to understand the complexities of their child's daily social and emotional landscape.
