A very funny anthology of poems exploring what children would do if they were in charge. Bossing parents around? Yes! Only ever eating ice cream? Maybe. Going to school? Read it and see . . .

from `The Prime Minister is 10 Today by David Harmer

This morning I abolished

homework, detention and dinner ladies.

I outlawed lumpy custard, school mashed spuds

and handwriting lessons.

From now on playtimes must last two hours

unless it rains, in which case we all go home

except the teachers who must do extra PE

outside in the downpour.
