Summary: Dealing with everyday childhood events and concerns, the poems in John Mole's collection will certainly touch a nerve with children, making them ponder, wonder, laugh and relate by turns (or sometimes all at once!). The subjects are as important and relevant to kids as those in Michael Rosen's Quick, Let's Get Out of Here! and are tackled with thought, sensitivity and plenty of humour. From the inventive A Novermber Riddle to the poignant She Heard Them Shouting, this is a collection for all levels within the 9-12 age group and beyond and easily fits the criteria for poetry in the National Literacy Strategy for schools. Beautifully illustrated in black and white by Mary Norman, this is a must-have for all young poetry fans.
