Produktbeschreibung
All the Frogs collects together the poems John Mole has written for children since the publication of This is the Blackbird which was shortlisted for the CLPE Award. As in his previous collections, he conveys the mystery, humour and sometimes pain to be experienced in everyday situations, and relishes the free play of rhythm and rhyme. Several of the poems here call out to be read aloud while others are more suited to quiet moments of thought. John Mole writes for children in the playground and for the solitary child in his or her private space. Charles Causley described an earlier collection as 'the work of a true poet' and the same can surely be said of All the Frogs.
Autorenporträt
After University John Mole spent fifteen years criss-crossing Europe, the Middle East and Africa for an American Bank. His fortieth birthday present to himself was to quit employment to write full time. Various entrepreneurial ventures include baked potato restaurants in Moscow, importing Russian biotechnology, and cleaning up water weed on Tanzania's Lake Victoria. In Greece with his family he restored an old house on the island of Evia, where he lives half the year. When not at the laptop or on the road he sings and plays the baglama, a miniature bouzouki, with a Greek band in London. www.johnmole.com
