Cover Story
Our front cover this month features an illutration by Mark Longworth for Gillian Cross's new paperback, The Revenge of the Demon Headmaster. Puffin publish this book in April 1995 (see the Gillian Cross Authorgraph for full details) and we are grateful to them for their help in using this illustration.
Storm's Eye
A collection to extend the range of poetry for many readers. It bridges the gap between the light verse that is so wonderful and plentiful in schools and the poetry that needs quiet and re-reading to get its sense. There's plenty to enjoy here in sequences of poems whose subjects will continually cross the paths of children, and allow them to hear the voice of an adult, sometimes boisterous, sometimes reflective, sometimes in the child's world, sometimes in the grown-up's.
