A YEAR FULL OF STORIES

By Georgie Adams. London: Orion Children's, 2002.

This book contains 366 stories and poems for children.

Overall, I did not like this book. Some of the entries are cute, but really the burden of there needing to be so much content is definitely felt throughout this entire book.

Also, unfortunately, so much of this book harkens back to an England that doesn't exist anymore, of two-parent (heterosexual) families, farms and the innocence of children.

I would have preferred a book of longer stories and poems without the one-year format included.
