The Shape of Rainbows Synopsis
Do you like peanut butter and popcorn? Would you like to find a friend, or give yourself a fright? Or maybe go on holiday with a rhino? See what happens when you live next door to a Viking – and read about the boy who ate his school!
This is an inventive and funny new collection from a very popular school performance poet. Entertaining, laugh-out-loud but also thought-provoking, the poems are perfectly matched by Will Hughes’s wild and witty illustrations.

Neal Zetter Press Reviews
"Here's a book you can tap out a rhythm to, sing to, dance to. It zaps and claps its way through the world of words, getting us to look closely at how words can make music. On the way it helps us ask questions about what writing is for and what's going on in the world. Zetter Zetter, now I feel better." -- Michael Rosen
"A twisty, twirly world of wonder from one of the nation’s favourite poets." -- Joshua Seigal, Poet and Author
"Another super anthology from Neal, full of sure-fire hits that will have the children begging for ‘just one more’! Pitched at just the right level and full of content that appeals to kids, his poems are fantastic fun to read aloud and a great way to show my pupils just how enjoyable poetry can be. Highly recommended." -- Gemma Jones, teacher and poetry-lover, Orchards Junior School, Worthing
"The snappiest, zappiest poems, that are great fun and can be enjoyed by everyone." -- Brian Moses
