This Anthology is the result of The Spark Arts for Children's poetry project - Powerful Words.
Acclaimed poet and storyteller John Berkavitch ran an eleven week residency in four Leicester schools working with children aged 8 - 9.
During the residency, year four classes from each of the participating schools were inspired to write their own material. This work was combined and presented in this anthology, a printed copy of which was given to each child.
The young poet laureates also contributed to a fantastic live performance event and showcased their new material in a thought provoking and exciting poetry slam which took place during The Spark Festival 2017.
