'The poems are written for children, which suits all of us. Buy it for your favourite niece. Keep it for yourself.', 'This book is a great party and a parade of Irish poets and poems, lavishly illustrated on every page.', 'a stunning, vividly illustrated book ... eye-catching ... easy to access ... wide ranging and varied in style and subject matter', 'This unique volume of poetry provides an ideal opportunity for parents, teaches and librarians to inspire a love of poetry among children and indeed to enjoy the diverse variety themselves as well.', 'buy this book but don't just buy one copy; buy at least two: one to keep by you to dip in and out of and one to put away. It's sure to be a collector's item. And the better get another few in case anyone makes off with your other copies.', 'If some word-gobbling wizard came and snatched all the poems out of this new anthology, if would still be a pleasure to browse through. Every page [is] a dramatic, often zany display of characters, creatures and tumbling objects, all in spectacular colours. This anthology sets no boundaries to where the imagination can go.', 'The most marvellously produced piece of work I have seen in a long time. An investment -- a brilliant book', 'a sumptuous collection of new work by Irish poets. Like all the best anthologies, it offers poems that extend one's definition of what the art can do, especially for children nine years old and upward. It is full of near-the-knuckle honesty, as in Rita Ann Higgins's poem about her father. Many of the poems, such as Michael Longley's "Hallowe'en", mix the playful and the disturbing. Sydney Bernard Smith's "The Day the Dalai Lama met the Pops" is pure genius, and cries out to be set to music and sung on Orange Day parades. This book should be in all schools where English (and Irish) is spoken. It is a place where poets and children meet, with no condescension from the former. Buy two copies -- one will be stolen.', ' this is a fantastic gift and one for keeps. It will be dipped into and enjoyed for many years to come. And don't be put off when it says it's for children: adults will love it too.', 'It is a delight to dip into this anthology, as much for my own pleasure as when reading snippets aloud to the young fry, as it is full of fun, fantasy, mystery and mayhem, with some nonsense verse, and lots of unexpected slants on life.', 'The numerous colourful illustrations are in themselves works of art and add magnificently to the words of the poems.', 'The range of subjects covered is extraordinary and every age group, from young children to adolescents will find something to engage their minds.', 'top-Class Illustration and Design Complete a MustHave Package for Every School, Library and Home.', 'More than 100 poets combine their talents to give us this exquisitely produced anthology, with dazzling illustrations by Corrina Askin and Alan Clarke: poems playful, poems profound.'
