Here Come the Heebie Jeebies and other Scary Poems

A collection of mainly light-hearted scary poems in a picture book format which will appeal to primary age children. There are poems about going to the dentist, bogeys, shadows and monsters illustrated dramatically and humorously. I would have liked to read a few more poems like Helen Dunmore's 'Little Horse in the Wardrobe' and Ad$ele Geras' 'Silk Dragon' which develop the 'scary' theme into more reflective and inspiring poems. This collection will also give children and teachers lots of ideas for writing scary poems of their own.
