Open this book carefully: as soon as you do, the wind will sweep you up across the city. You’ll roam down empty streets, take a ride on the Metro and see magical things – but there’s always time to stop and look about the world around you: the night, the rain, and the sea. These poems focus on everyday, small things – and breathe new life into everything that children see around them. A plastic bag dreams of becoming a cloud, raindrops go on holiday to the sea, and hats fill up with thoughts.

The book builds an immersive, tender world – and through its gentle sense of humour and striking images it teaches children to look closely at everything they come across.. Suitable for children aged 6+.
