POETRY FOR EVERYONE BUT ESPECIALLY FOR CHILDREN
JOSIE'S POEMS
WELCOME
My name is Josie Whitehead. I am a retired teacher and poet, writing for both young and old, but especially for children of all ages. Five anthologies of my poetry are due out at the end of January 2010, containing 330 poems. An animated film will also be available: "The Wizard of Alderley Edge" and the poem to this is inside for you to see. To have so much material published immediately as a new writer is not only unusual but a great privilege, and I owe a debt of thanks to local children who have given me a lot of encouragement with my very early poems. I also appreciate the teachers who, last year, in many different classrooms tried these poems out with their children and selected them for the books. Books can be ordered via this website very soon.
I hope you enjoy the poems which I have put on this website and they will give you a taste of the poems which will shortly be appearing in your schools and bookstores.
Visit the Web Index to see the variety of things which this new website has to offer. It will surprise you.
