Me and My Alien Friend is Ed Boxall’s first full-length collecti on of children’s poetry. The book is full of all sorts of friends: best friends, changing friends, absent friends, animal friends, imaginary friends and even a friend who’s a ‘Thing on a Springy String’. In the poems, friends adventure together: discovering, exploring and sharing life’s happy hills and lonely dark hollows. The ‘Alien Friend’ poem returns like a chorus throughout the book: a boy sits on the moon with his 38-toed alien friend, looking at our world from a peaceful distance, observing, thinking, dreaming. In poems and drawings, friendship is gently celebrated as a universal experience that can cross every divide.
