Editorial Reviews
Review
Its range is impressive and, although there's plenty of mandatory playground jokiness, room is found for several well-chosen extracts from Shakespeare ... plus Keats, Coleridge, Rossetti, Yeats and some fine contemporary work such as Helen Dunmore's poignant 'Asking the Hare'. -- Times Educational Supplement 20030530 'a vibrant collection' -- Parent Wise 20030301
