{{newreview
|title=Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats
|author=T S Eliot and Rebecca Ashdown (Illustrator)
|rating=4.5
|genre=Children's Rhymes and Verse
|summary=It has always struck me to be the very definition of disappointment to think you're going to study Eliot's poetry at college or university, only to find it is some errant dross like 'The Four Quartets'. His book of Cats poems is in the strictest of verse, it's bursting with levity, it's surely great fun to share – what's not to prefer here? If I were you, I'd just ignore what kind of show these pages once inspired, and turn or return to them, Prufrock be damned.

|title=The Executioner's Daughter
|summary=I vaguely remember the ‘''Green Knowe'' books from my childhood. They were an unusual mix of adventure and fantasy with some history thrown in, written in the middle of the last century. There are six books in the series, all based in a large house called 'Green Noah' or 'Green Knowe', based on the author’s own home.
