Product description

So what’s in this box? Here’s a little clue. The author has put inside it: the swish of a silk sari on a summer night. Fire from the nostrils of a Chinese dragon. The tip of a tongue touching a tooth. A snowman with a rumbling belly. A sip of bluest water from Lake Lucerne. A leaping spark from an electric fish. Those are some of the wonders that await you inside the Magic Box. The question is: do you want to open it?

  • A wonderful compilation of Kit Wright’s finest poems
  • Full of well-loved favourites from his bestselling books
