Notă biografică

A.F. Harrold is an English poet who writes and performs for adults and children. He spends his time showing off on stage, writing poems and books, and stroking his beard (it helps churn the ideas). He is the author of The Song from Somewhere Else (illustrated by Levi Pinfold), the Fizzlebert Stump series, and the CILIP Carnegie and Kate Greenaway Medal long listed The Imaginary (illustrated by Emily Gravett). He lives in Reading with a stand-up comedian and two cats.Katy Riddell is a young and imaginative illustrator with a BA Hons in Illustration and Animation from Manchester Metropolitan University. She grew up in Brighton and was obsessed with drawing from a young age. Plenty of encouragement from her parents, both artists and illustrators, led her to spend hours writing and illustrating her own stories, which her father (former Children's Laureate and award-winning illustrator Chris Riddell) collected throughout the years. Katy loves working with children, and currently runs an art club at her local school. She lives and works in Manchester.

Recenzii

This moreish anthology - a menu of poetic snacks - is illustrated with beguiling, gentle humour.
A gorgeous anthology of poems about food, this is funny, mouth-watering and moving, with delectable coloured illustrations to accompany the deliciousness.
Wonderfully in keeping with the Christmas spirit is Midnight Feasts, compiled by A.F. Harrold and illustrated by Katy Riddell. This brings together an eclectic and wide-ranging selection of poems about food, a mouth-watering collection.
Stuff yourself with these poems, they're so delicious they should be fattening!
Food, glorious food is celebrated in verse in this tasty collection compiled by A.F. Harrold. Certain to tickle your taste buds.
Even those who know poems and poets will find something new to whet their appetite: so many different poetic forms and moods are included here. A. F.'s choices are complemented by Katy Riddell's deft and delightful colour illustrations: his words and her pictures combine to make a moreish book for a peck or a binge.
The book features some great contributions from well-established modern poets alongside poems by newer writers and those by the likes of Lewis Carroll and other old favourites. Particularly welcome is the fact that the poems feature food (and poets) from places other than Britain. This makes the book that bit more tasty.
This is a fabulous collection, brilliant for dipping in and out of. Another 'must' for the poetry shelf!
You can't go wrong with a book about food and A.F. Harrold has assembled a tasty menu for this delicious anthology.
A great way to keep children entertained and introduce them to the wonderful world of poetry.
