Manchester Evening News

Sadderday and Funday simply bursts with the agonies and raw delights of being a young adolescent ... written with a fresh, simple immediacy about things that really matter - love, families, bullying and friendship. These poems are often funny, but also full of emotions with which young people will readily identify.'
