Perfect for reading, sharing and treasuring.S Magazine - Sunday Express
Experience tells me that the best book presents are sentimental or serendipitous. Having a poem to read every day sweetened the passing of time, and with its hoard of immortal wisdom, the collection was a handrail to hold onto whenever I felt wobbly.The Telegraph - Perfect Books
A lucky dip for all ages and a handsome Christmas diversion.Kate Kellaway, The Observer - The New Review
