Beautifully Illustrated
Made To Treasure

A year-long journey through the animal kingdom, one poem at a time

This beautifully illustrated treasury brings together a poem for each day of the year, compiled by children's literature expert Fiona Waters. The collection ranges from classics like William Blake to contemporary voices from around the world, featuring poets including Roger McGough, Grace Nichols, Ogden Nash, and Dick King-Smith.

The poems explore the full breadth of the animal kingdom - from butterflies to yaks, manatees to tigers - and vary wonderfully in style and tone. You'll find playful haiku alongside thoughtful free verse, silly celebrations and solemn reflections. Britta Teckentrup's stunning illustrations bring each creature to life through rich colours and dreamlike imagery that complements the poetry beautifully.

With its marker ribbon and substantial feel, this is a book designed for returning to again and again. Perfect for bedtime reading, following through the seasons, or simply opening at random to discover something new.

Suitable for children aged 5 years and up
