A beautiful anthology of poetry about families and friends and all those we love. The poems are by 23 different poets, and there are outstanding ones amongst them. Enjoy 'Brother' by Mary Ann Hoberman for its wonderful word play as well as its message that brothers can be a bother or Hiawyn Oram's 'Urgent note to my parents' about parents letting children be themselves. In fact, enjoy them all, and along with the poems, take in the sensuous beauty of the illustrations, full of tradition and warmth. Outstanding all round.
