Sneak preview... Coral Rumble reads poems from her forthcoming collection 'Riding a Lion'

---

Coral Rumble

Coming this August, a brand new collection from award-winning children’s poet Coral Rumble.

It’s called Riding a Lion, it’s beautifully illustrated by Emily Ford and it’s packed with adventures that are as much about the ups and downs of your daily life as they are about wild animals.

Excited? Can’t wait till August? No problem, we have a few sneak previews tucked up our sleeves.

First up, here’s a trailer, featuring Coral reading the title poem, along with Emily’s artwork. (Big thanks to fellow Troika poet Dom Conlon for mixing this!).

And if that leaves you hungry for more, head over to www.troikabooks.com/riding-a-lion where you can hear Coral read five poems from the book.

PS. While you listen in, try to imagine Coral hiding in a dusty cupboard of her own. Why? Because she was! Not because she’d been naughty, we should add, but because her son is a sound engineer and he shared a few tricks for making a good voice recording. Enjoy!
