Joyce GrenfellCritiques

When young on holiday my Granny suggested I trying reading the Joyce Grenfell book that was there. I did and loved it. So in recent years I got this book. I think it is brilliant and very funny. The reason I took a star away was because my favourite are the Nursery ones so I wanted more of that!

Favourites: “The Reason for Joy”; “Time”, however is in "More Poetry Please", Everyman.

This collection of poems range through many different moods-lyrical, wistful, funny, and sad-but all are full of wit and observation. The text is also accompanied by the poet's own sketches and Christmas cards that aim to conjure up a lost England.
