Matt Goodfellow's debut collection, Carry Me Away, is a beautifully crafted set of poems that blend humour, intrigue and a love of the natural world. The poems will delight, amuse and challenge young readers between the ages of 7-12 but are there to be enjoyed by the whole family. Poems such as `The Boy That Came From Under the Ground' are already critically acclaimed having been highly commended in international competitions. `With the Waterfalls' and `Another Place' feature in the 2015 CLiPPA shortlisted, `Let in the Stars' anthology. As award-winning poet, Mandy Coe, says of Carry Me Away, `Poems, yes - and seas, skies, laughter and music! This is a book to treasure. Matt Goodfellow's poetry shows how mystery and adventure can live between the shortest of line.' Celebrated poet and story-teller, Pie Corbett, states, `Matt's writing is sensitive and powerful, transforming the world under the microscope of poetic language.'
