Reviews

"In a world in which the young are more and more drawn into technology-induced isolation where much is received second-hand, and the real world increasingly-- in real time -- shut out, these poems offered by teachers make their point. In themselves they offer students things to see and ponder away from the smart phones and ipads; occasions to connect with minds and sensibilities that have spoken from first-hand encounters, deploying the powers of language and the imagination to present human and unique experiences." - Anne Lee Tzu Pheng, Poet and Singapore Cultural Medallion Winner

"Penned with a touch of local flavour and context, the poems within the book are relatable and closer to the heart. These poetry artworks, contributed by our very own local teacher-writers, examined and expressed life in Singapore, providing an insightful contrast between the lifestyle of the past and present." - Faith Khong, npTribune
