描述
By: Debra Bertulis | Illustrator: Jess Mason
An exciting debut poetry collection full of magic, adventure, humour, and empathy, from a widely anthologised poet.
Ride a silver-maned unicorn, make a witches' brew, head to Star City and become an astronaut. Name your pet mouse Fred, find secrets in the forest, and enjoy those glad-to-be-alive days. But don't impersonate your mum on the telephone!
From changing schools and missing friends, to standing up for nature and helping to save our Earth. These are poems about being kind, feeling sad, or going on an adventure, and there's something for everyone in this book.
