Dear Ugly Sister

A varied, effervescent and thought-provoking debut collection from a poet already well-known through anthologies, websites, literary events and poetry workshops.

Tonight I fancy a flight,
so I shuffle my short feathers
and jump.

Original, dazzling and unconventional, this brilliant first solo collection has a surprise on every page.

Go on a night flight, have a monster's lunch, immerse yourself in birdsong. Shout out an Apatosaurus rap before checking out Alexander Fleming's petri dish. Find fairy tales with a twist, poems to make you laugh - and reflective poems to think about.

Full of variety, wit and warmth, this is a spectacular debut from a poet to watch!
