Overheard in a Tower Block: Poems by - Paperback
by Joseph Coelho (Author), Kate Milner (Illustrator)
Gazing at the stars from five floors up, smelling the bins from five floors below. Overheard arguments, overheard laughter. A disappearing father and a Mermaid-Queen mother; statues that sing for flesh and blood; bullies who kick you under the table; perfect red trainers - and the things that lurk in the library.... Award-winning poet Joseph Coelho's astonishing new collection is a powerful and moving poetic narrative about growing up in the city.
