Harry Baker: If You’re Harry and You Poet, Clap Your Hands
Overview
Harry Baker: If You’re Harry and You Poet, Clap Your Hands
Hope may well be a thing with feathers – then again, so were the dinosaurs.
World Poetry Slam Champion Harry Baker is back. Following on from last year’s 60-date sellout tour, this year he is being more selective and just doing fun poems (and some sad poems) in fun places (and maybe some sad places but hopefully not), ideally near friends he hasn’t seen for a while.
With his new book now officially an International Bestseller (thank you Ireland), he will be sharing crowd favourites and personal favourites from across all four of his existing collections, as well as brand new material that he hopes will become both crowd and personal favourites in the future.
