Win a copy of
THE LOUDEST WHISPERS

Exploring the many wonders and worries of childhood – a creative collaboration between poet Rhuar Dean and illustrator Charlotte Workman.

The Loudest Whispers brings together sixty-four pages of illustrated poems exploring the many wonders and worries of childhood, including early mornings, family walks, the first days of school, dinner-times, losing football matches, the chaos of siblings, staying safe online, words that rhyme with “poo”, playground bullying, bedtime reluctance, and plenty of pure, joyful nonsense.

Created in collaboration by poet Rhuar Dean and illustrator Charlotte Workman, the book aims to encourage and embolden young readers through poems and pictures that are as delicate, mischievous and full of feeling as the children who read them and the adults they will one day become.

Designed for children aged five to twelve, and for the adults who share stories with them, The Loudest Whispers shows that life can be funny, difficult, silly and sad – sometimes all at the same time!

Rhuar Dean is a poet and writer currently living and working in the Middle East. His poems and fiction have appeared in magazines including Litro, the Interpreter’s House, Crannog, Open Pen and the Londonist and have been performed in London, Leicester and New York.

Charlotte Workman is an illustrator based in Lewes, UK. Also an actress, she especially enjoys creating artworks that viewers can return to, interact with and keep finding something new in.

Rhuar explains:“These poems come both from comfort and conflict. A desire to bend the rules, to not grow up.”
