Michael Rosen's six best books

Michael Rosen is an English poet, scriptwriter, broadcaster, and performer, has been writing for children since 1970. His books include We're Going on a Bear Hunt. One of his six best books, as shared at the Daily Express:
EMIL AND THE DETECTIVES
by Erich Kästner

This was my favourite book as a child. Emil's mother sends him to Berlin with some money for his aunt and grandmother but the money is stolen by a stranger on the train. It's funny, exciting and very atmospheric.
Read about the other books on the list.
