Firecrackers is a hum-dinger of a book; packed full of wonderfully off-the-wall and out-of-this-world poems, little plays, tall tales, raps, fairy tales, haikus and loads more. This page turner is an Aladdin's Cave of magical words and gorgeous drawings just waited to be discovered. Reading it will not just spark the child's imagination, it will send it soaring. Jo Riddell's wonderful illustrations and her evocative line drawings draw the child in even deeper into that mysterious world where the everyday becomes magical.
