Poems with Attitude Reviews

'Poems with Attitude' is bursting with the raw emotion and hormone-fuelled experimentation of youth... It is rare and welcome to find a collection that speaks so directly to teenagers. - The Guardian

You won't agree with all of them [the poems], but they'll get you talking! - Is That a Fact? (Scottish Booktrust)

If you thought poetry wasn't for you, because it has nothing to do with your life, try reading this collection! - Young Writer Magazine

Buy this collection and it will be read. Read by staff and teachers to pupils and then read by pupils themselves for both the pleasure and the pain the poems induce. [...] I cannot emphasise how much every school needs this - in the library, in the classroom, for assembly, for tutorials, for PSHE, left on windowsills for pupils to pick up - everywhere! - The School Librarian

... a fantastic collection of poems for the hormone-frenzied, couldn't care less teenage audience. It deserves not only their attention, but equally importantly that of their parents and teachers, too. - Amazon reader review

A nicely-produced, in-your-face collection printed with a very clean typeface. - searchmaster.com, website

PETERS IS A POET WHO WRITES LIKE A TEENAGER. EVERYTHING IS SO TRUE - HE'S LIVED IT, AND WRITES ABOUT IT. - READING IS FUNDAMENTAL

Amusing poems and gems that make you think about real issues. - The Telegraph
