Please Say Me I’m a Poem

Baby Babbikim & other Poems for Big Kids & Little Kids’’

Maureen S. Capps

“Please Say Me I’m a Poem” is a collection of delightful poetry by author and illustrator Maureen Sylvia Capps.  The poems were written so children could have fun with the sound bubbles in words; playing with their different rhythms and rhymes while at the same time retaining information.  Maureen is familiar with all thew development ‘ages and stages’ of childhood and loves to match her poems to the interests and meeds of children.  She has taught all years K-7 and is passionate about oral language; the doorway to literacy.

Many poems within the book appeal to the imagination and are based on Maureen’s love of nature, and the magic of her own childhood growing up in the country.  There are poems fro the tiny children, for the 6-8 year old fantasy age, for middle primary and older children.  There are also poems for the ‘big’ kids, so this book is for grown-ups too!  This is a unique anthology of over 100 poems with some set in a West Australian context.  Maureen has illustrated them with her big-eyed ‘little’ people.  You will discover poems that touch your heart.  They bring out the child in all of us.
