A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Cherry Pie by collection from Ted Hughes Award and Arts Foundation Award winner Hollie McNish<>/b, is inspired by her grandparents' advice on newspapers, war, sex and tinned cherries.

The poems collected in Cherry Pie hold personal meaning for Hollie and are also those which have been frequently requested by audiences in theatres, pubs, festival tents, schools and youth clubs up and down the UK. The book is illustrated by some of Hollie's favourite artists and illustrators.

Cherry Pie includes Hollie's poem Mathematics (1.9 million hits on YouTube) as well as Bungalows and Biscuits which was shortlisted for Best Factual New Media Content About Older People's Issues in the Older People in Media Awards. Hollie's poetry has received over 3.5 million YouTube views; more than most political speeches, less than a cat dancing to 80's pop music.
