This is a book of poems I wrote and the very talented Sophie Glascott illustrated.

I wrote the poems mainly for primary school children but I feel sure they will appeal to children of all ages.

This book grew from my work with children, especially at Murrurundi and Oxley Island. The happiness and trust I gained from that work is immeasurable and I hope you can feel that in the poems.

Here, I've included two poems from the 23 in the book - “Mulberry Madness” and “A Secret Place”. Just click on the links below to read them. The illustrations are Sophie's, taken from the book.

“MULBERRY MADNESS”
