All Poems Aloud: World Book Day 2025

All Poems Aloud by Joseph Coelho, illustrated by Daniel Gray-Barnett
 
Poems are made for voices—and this lively little collection invites children to discover what their own voice can do. Read softly, loudly or in a whisper; share a poem with a friend; tackle a tongue twister; or choose from funny, silly, animal, spooky and thought-provoking poems.
 
Joseph Coelho’s performance-led writing and Daniel Gray-Barnett’s expressive illustrations make poetry feel active, welcoming and playful. The variety of moods and ways to perform gives families, classrooms and groups plenty of opportunities to experiment with rhythm, volume, expression and character.
 
Created especially for World Book Day 2025, this 16-page paperback is a compact introduction to poetry for sharing, performing and enjoying out loud.
