From forgotten jellybeans to sparking daydreams, Alex's poems, written for primary school age children, are both funny and thoughtful, and aim to spark familiarity and inclusion. And the illustrations from Katy Riddell focus on the fun and dreamlike quality of the poems' engagement with the natural world. These poems use rhyme, rhythm and free verse and are ideally suited to performance in a school setting, nurturing a love of language, reading, confidence and self-expression.

Alex Wharton is a writer and poet from Torfaen, South Wales. He's had poems published in journals and is a regular compere of Cardiff Arts Free Festival. He visits schools to perform his poetry and facilitate writing workshops, and was the winner of the inaugural Rising Stars Award, run in collaboration between Literature Wales and Firefly Press in 2019. Daydreams and Jellybeans is Alex's debut collection.
