Old Possum’s Children’s Poetry Competition 2008

TWO FREE POETRY BOOKS!

Special offer on Children’s Poetry Bookshelf membership for all entrants’ schools, libraries and parents/grandparents or guardians.

The Children’s Poetry Bookshelf is a book club dedicated to encouraging children to read and enjoy poetry. Three times a year members receive a parcel of books which are chosen by a panel of expert Selectors, whose task is to find the very best children's poetry.

Please look at our How to Join pages to decide which kind of membership would be the right one for you.

We are offering schools, libraries and parents/grandparents/adults free copies of The Poetry Store and The Thing That Mattered Most .

Don’t forget that if you are buying a membership for a child it can be sent directly to them, meaning that they will receive a parcel of poetry books three times a year.

To join and receive your free books, please call us on +44 (0)20 7833 9247, email info@childrenspoetrybookshelf.co.uk or write to us at:
