Published around National Poetry Day and in celebration on McGough’s 80th birthday, 80 marks both the long and successful career of a much-loved poet, and an opportunity to engage a whole new generation with the increasingly popular, accessible and fresh face of poetry.

Roger McGough has published many books of poems for children and adults, and both his Collected Poems (2004) and Selected Poems (2006) are available in Penguin.
