Meet a beetle with a blaster on its bottom, find the perfect beat for a football rap, and discover which dinosaur weighed exactly the same as 10,000 cats.

Join acclaimed children’s poet Simon Mole at Buckingham Library for a session of poems, raps, and inspired improvisation. You can even get creative yourself, and join in with some fun (and quite silly) games! Saturday 5th September from 10.30am

As well as reading from his CLiPPA prize shortlisted A First Book of Bugs, Simon will be performing his favourite poems from his new book Poetry Pizza – A Guardian Book of the Month pick and a BookTrust Recommended Read.
