‘When reading a poem aloud, don't just 'read' it - make your performance have impact, lose your inhibitions, act it out, shout it, sing it, bang a drum to emphasise the rhythm of the poem, add sound effects. Children will remember that performance & be positive about poetry.’ Brian Moses.

Brian's poems are brilliant on the page, but there's something even better about getting to listen to him perform them. They spring to life with his voice. The audiobook version of "Behind the Staff Room Door: The Very Best of @brianmosespoet.bsky.social " is a delight
