Synopsis

Daydreams, surprises, hopes, fears, friendships. Word-play, narrative poems, limericks, surrealism and much more. . . This wonderful collection of all-new poems is the fruit of many years' work in schools, at festivals, and in the broadcasting studio. Stewart Henderson is a Tv and radio script-writer, a song writer and a performance poet. His poetry takes a very funny, sideways look at life, in a way that leaves plenty to think about. Stewart's poetry has been published in several anthologies. All the poems in Who Left Grandad at the Chip Shop? are new. A great collection to entertain and for classroom use.
