This collection brings together five emerging voices in poetry. And despite what the publisher says, I wouldn't personally impose an age restriction on the writing here. Each poet uses words that will appeal to many readers. I found this particularly so with Jay Hulme's poetry.
Not all of the poems in this collection were as strong and developed as the ones I mentioned, but each writer demonstrates much in the way of promise. I thoroughly enjoyed hearing their voices and I don't hesitate to suggest that every last one of them could develop much further if they put the time and effort into honing their skills. Overall though, this is a great starting point for any young writer and a fun collection to read.
If you're interested in reading more poetry then it's always worth checking out [[A Poem for Every Day of the Year by Allie Esiri]] or [[The Things I Would Tell You: British Muslim Women Write by Sabrina Mahfouz]] if you're interested in multi-culturalism. You might also enjoy [[A Little, Aloud for Children by Angela Macmillan]].
