Description:

Red Sky in the Morning, Poet’s Warning is the fourth collection of mysterious, humorous, philosophical and charming poetry for young people by Alex Wharton, Children’s Laureate Wales. From poems that describe ‘Wild Boys’ who live alone in the woods to poems about ‘Time’ and meeting an astronaut, or the demise of Mr Slime from the last book, there is something for everyone! These poems reflect on nature’s happenings, through observation and experience, but not forgetting to transport the reader to many magical, musical and imaginative worlds.

A companion piece to Red Sky at Night, Poet’s Delight published exactly a year earlier, this ambitious volume reveals Alex as an evolving and maturing children’s poet whose vibrant work will resonate deeply with his readership.
