Publisher's Synopsis

In this fantastic anthology, Roger McGough and Brian Patten have selected the very best of their animal poems for the purpose of two loveable monsters from outer space who decide to visit Earth in search of a pet and need a bit of guidance... Split into sections, they are introduced to animals that fly, swim, crawl and purr by two of our greatest children's poets. Illustrated in Guy Parker-Rees' lively and inimitable style.

About the Publisher

Puffin

The first ten paperback Penguin books appeared in 1935 costing 6d each (the price of a packet of cigarettes). Since then the Penguin list has developed enormously, but still aims to bring the best writing to the widest possible audience. Penguin Paperbacks now range from Booker Prize-winning contemporary authors, to mass market bestsellers, with successful history, biography and general non-fiction as well.
