Will You Be My Friend?

This new edition of Will You Be My Friend? brings together over 100 of Gabriel Fitzmaurice’s best-loved poems chosen from his collections for children together with more than thirty new poems, including a selection of his poems in Irish. Enjoyed by both the young and the young at heart, the poems range from the silly to the serious, from the sad to the happy, from the naughty to the nice. Childhood, family, school, animals, the seasons and festivals of the year are all seen through the eyes of a child.
