Although the author is a very keen naturalist and
has travelled to many countries of the world looking
for and at many of the amazing and, sometimes,
unbelievably beautiful creatures that share this planet
with us, those that feature in this book where seen
while sitting quietly in an armchair with his eyes closed.
However he does urge you to open your eyes, get
outside and look very carefully at the wonderful reality
of the wild birds and beasts that are part of all our lives
What strange creatures might be hiding just out of sight? Meet the honey-loving Snaffle, the sleepy Weerie, the dancing Hawkestral, and many more unforgettable birds and beasts in this enchanting collection of poems by Peter Martin. Bursting with humour, imagination, and beautifully observed storytelling, Birdly and Beastly Poetry! is a joyful celebration of fantasy, nature, and the wonder of seeing the world through curious eyes.
