A Book of Poems and Stories

Young Tree, for that was his name, had everything he could wish for; plenty of love, warmth and food from the forest he lived in with his older brother and parents.

Yet he wanted more than this; he wanted an adventure.

He found it difficult to concentrate on the lessons his mother gave him every day. He dreamt of exotic islands and endless beaches, with coconuts growing everywhere. Monkeys befriended him to keep him company, with flocks of birds to talk to all day.

One fine day he set forth, pulling up his roots. His steps were light and he was full of hope. Leaves crunched beneath his feet.

Even in his determination to face the challenges ahead of him, and which crossed his young mind; the path became more and more difficult.

Have you ever wished for an adventure of your very own, then this is the story for you.

Read on and see what happens to Young Tree…

Children's Christmas Rhymes

Mince pies and carrots on the plate

Glass of milk in pride of place

Under the tree is the perfect place

Santa plays the perfect role

Sack in hand, presents placed

Off he goes to another place

Riding high in the sky

I caught a glimpse as reindeer galloped by

Merry Christmas everyone

Save the Peas for Last

With the arrival of your dinner plate have you ever paused to think what might be running through the minds of those little morsels cowering beneath the prongs of your menacing fork.

Put yourself in their position, the terror of not knowing. Will I be the first to go? Will it be quick, if minds are on pudding? Your only certainty is the knowledge that you won’t be around to witness the end of those bland peas. They’ll be last, for sure!

Will Power

He is universally regarded as the world’s most influential writer, whose works transcend cultures and time. Yet, in his homeland, one person in five has never seen or read a play by William Shakespeare.
The author of this book believes the reason that so many fail to make the acquaintance of the Bard lies in the classroom. He feels the introduction to Shakespeare is made in the wrong way and to pupils of the wrong age.
This book attempts to show that simple rhymes, evoking the powerful moral themes of Shakespearean drama, can engage the interest of young children more effectively than confronting teenagers with an incomprehensible text.
