It's not unexpected, but always so cheering, to find in these collections such lively writing and so many nuggets to read aloud and share. As you enjoy the immediacy and freshness of young authors at their best, you wonder what occasions allowed this creativity to be caught in writing - and how much more exists in the children you teach, if only it could be released? A book all teachers need to read and share with their pupils.
