Reviews / Votes
Isn't this childhood in a nutshell - a rollercoaster of mixed emotions, highs and lows? - Manchester Evening NewsSadderday and Funday simply bursts with the agonies and raw delights of being a young adolescent ... written with a fresh, simple immediacy about things that really matter - love, families, bullying and friendship. These poems are often funny, but also full of emotions with which young people will readily identify.' - The Parents Guide
