Blood and Roses Bewertungen

Some are funny, some exciting, some depressing, but all convey the feel of history -- Bournemouth Echo 20041119 You'll never look at history the same way again. -- South Wales Argus 20050813 Historical facts are brought alive through the thoughts and feelings of the famous and the unknown -- writeaway.org 20050813 The energetic Brian Moses has made the best of a difficult brief ... He's avoided the old jingoistic staples ... In their place he has let us hear the non-famous and the non-heroic ... It's good to see that the complex matter of British identity is given an airing with a poem about a freed African slave Olaudah Equiano and a fine piece by James Berry -- Michael Rosen, Junior Education 20040901 This Brian Moses anthology is compiled by a poet who has a great deal of experience of presenting poetry directly to youngsters of all ages, and it shows... The net has been cast wide and the final choices are precise and careful... A mix of contemporary and recent with the less obvious inclusions paving the way for fresh discoveries for the reader. This is altogether a refreshing procession through the annals of the years and it also manages the task of blowing away the dust of over-familiarity at times. This book is useful, of course, as a curriculum resource for older primary or younger secondary ages in particular; but over and above that it is a good read, especially as it is attractively illustrated and presented. -- School Librarian 20040601 Tony Mitton and I were pleasantly surprised by the variety and range of this anthology ... Snapshots of life for Stone Age Britain to recent times. The text is complemented by sumptuous line drawings. -- Valerie Bloom, TES Teacher 20050610 Interesting book as it looks at British history with poems from prehistoric time, right up to modern times... I really enjoyed the Scottish poems. My favourite was probably A Pict Song by Rudyard Kipling as it told me how the Picts lived and how much they hated the Roman invaders. There were a number of poems about Edward 1 and his battles with the Scots and the book mentions the famous spider and Robert the Bruce - this time the spider tells the tale which was funny. I'm glad I read this book because now i know what it was like in the past when people got murdered and kings got crowned. -- Teen Titles (issue 34) 20050610
