National Poetry Day – Celia Warren’s Favourite Quote from William Blake

Celia Warren has been writing poetry ever since she learned to read, and has been published in hundreds of children’s anthologies. She has compiled two anthologies: The RSPB Anthology of Wildlife Poems illustrated by a range of fabulous artists, (Bloomsbury) and A Time to Speak and a Time to Listen (Schofield and Sims). Celia loves reading and performing her poems to anyone who’ll listen! Her latest book, Don’t Poke a Worm till it Wriggles, illustrated by Sean Longcroft, A&C Black, is all about worms! Celia’s website is here.

Beats all the Lies you can invent
