Cyfrol ddifyr wedi ei darlunio'n lliwgar yn cynnwys 18 cerdd amrywiol, rhai doniol a dwys; i ddarllenwyr 7-11 oed.

An entertaining, colour-illustrated volume comprising 18 diverse poems, both humorous and thoughtful; for readers aged 7-11 years.

The puzzling title of this collection of magical poems sets the tone of mystery which lies just beneath the surface of life. Within these verses familiar people, animals, places, activities and relationships are explored through the power of the imagination, against a backdrop of the Welsh landscape.

The contrasts of past and present lifestyles, people’s different tastes, the exuberance of youth and the wisdom of old age are tackled with a sense of fun but also of wonder.

We are immediately drawn to this book by the bright and cheerful illustrations which compliment the varied poems.

Finally, we are able to assess how we look at life: as Gareth’s drama or Bethan’s game . . .
