Présentation de l'éditeur

Excuses, Excuses is a perennial favourite and best-selling collection of poems about school, compiled by top anthologiser John Foster. Most the poems here are humorous, but some are more serious and will make you think. Many of them have been written specially for this collection and, together with other poems by such well-known children's poets as Michael Rosen, Kit Wright, and Spike Milligan, go to make up a lively and engaging anthology. This popular book is being reissued with a fresh, modern new look.
