REVIEW
\"This collection is totally appetising. The speaker/reader will delight in the words and the listener cannot help but be drawn into the fun and emotions of the concepts that are waiting to be heard. Some poems reflect the sheer exhilaration of life, others the sensitivity of human existence. All those who delve into the book will come away feeling enriched.\" Reading Time - August, 2002
