5 star reviews for Small Feats and Tall Tales
'Small Feats & Tall Tales: Poetry, Haiku and Very Short Stories' by Charley Elbow is something of a poetic tour de force in terms of its originality. The territory that the author manages to cover with his collection of poems is breath-taking in its scale. The whole book sparkles with wit, ingenuity and warmth, at every moment of which you can hear an authentic poetic voice. ..." Nigel on Goodreads.
"The SMALL FEATS AND TALL TALES consists of many haiku and other poems, which I would say are an excellent introduction to poetry for both children and adults....." Marin on Goodreads
