Dont Wear It On Your Head, Dont Stick It Down Your Pants by John Siddique
This book is a celebration of who we are; the good stuff, our amazing senses, language, love, gossip and cheese. John Siddique's poems blast off the page into real life or they can melt as gently as a snowflake on your tongue.The subtitle of this book is ‘poems for young people’Make that young people of all ages, any person whose mind is open to a different view. This is a book which biffs you round the ear one moment and takes your breath away the next. There are poems here to challenge and poems to make the reader laugh out loud.
-- Fiona Waters
