Welcome

Hello! I’m Liz Brownlee, children’s poet, and down by my feet is Paddy, my trainee medical alert dog. Come along into my website to find lots of poems, but especially ANIMAL poems!

You’ll also find lots of fun poetry animations!

I’m very proud to be a National Poetry Day Ambassador. Poetry is a crucial resource in teaching children to read. As the Centre for Learning in Primary Education (CLPE) states: Poetry’s rhythms and patterns introduce children to a range of reading skills. Children naturally pick up rhymes and rhythms, they want to join in, they enjoy the experience – and a rich experience of hearing and learning poems is a fantastic way of learning how language works.
