I Want a Pony

This children's book was inspired by the author's time working with children in primary schools as a teaching assistant, in poetry workshops and as a performance poet, and also during time spent working in an adventure playground. I Want a Pony is a collection of humorous poems and short stories for children aged 5-11 years although it is accessible to older readers. The poems and short stories capture childhood interests and ideas that are current and timeless. This book can also be used as an education resource for primary school teachers covering a range of topics and subjects including bullying and history.
