A collection of poems with a summer holiday theme, being mainly concerned with seaside activities. There are contributions from children as well as from a wide range of poets including Causley, Reeves, Keats, Judith Nicholls, Stevenson, Rosen and Gareth Owen. With such a seasonal theme the book will probably be most read around holiday time, but at this time of year could serve as a reminder of the summer delights of sea and sand.
