| Note | Today's children encounter many different types of family: extended families, stepfamilies, single-parent families and children who live apart from their mothers, fathers or siblings. This anthology weaves together the everyday comedy, catastrophes and cuddles that make up modern family life. The very best classic and contemporary poets explore every aspect of families, from sibling squabbles to funny photographs, from sad farewells to raucous reunions. Every child will find something to identify with, whether it's a DIY-mad dad, beautiful baby brother, squeezeable mum, or the antics of grannies, grandads, uncles, aunts and cousins - even the family pet! This collection is a celebration of families everywhere. |
| Note | Introduction
Family quilt
Mama look like christmas
They'll be sorry
In daddy's arms
Never stew your sister
My other granny
Lucky to be little
Just like grandpa
Remembering
Mother doesn't want a dog
Tea with aunty mabel
