Media Reviews
This beautiful book would make a magical gift for lucky children everywhere. It is introduced by a poem by Gillian Clarke, the National Poet of Wales, wherein we are extolled to Read a poem every day. Theyre short and made of lovely words, friendly, small as little birds. And such poems by such poets: Gillian Clarke herself, Catherine Fisher, Phil Carradice, Francesca Kay, Chris Kinsey, and Frances Thomas. Each of them takes two of the months of the year and writes a series of poems significant to the season. And then there are the stunning illustrations. Fran Evans has produced a full colour picture for the beginning of each month, and dotted throughout the book are small black and white vignettes full of life and grace. The four seasons are represented by different coloured pages in the palest of colours, and the end pages are a delightful riot of snowflakes, blackberries, bees and newts. At 9.99 for a quality hardback, this is a must-have for families, schools and your favourite nephew or niece. My grandchildren will be enjoying my copy.
