Yoto Says: Discover the beautiful and poetic world of Joseph Coelho as he explores what it means to grow up... Gazing at the stars from five storeys up, smelling the bins from five storeys below. Overheard arguments, overheard laughter. A disappearing father and a Mermaid-Queen mother; statues that sing for flesh and blood; bullies who kick you under the table; perfect red trainers - and the things that lurk in the library... Award-winning poet Joseph Coelho's astonishing collection is a powerful and moving poetic narrative about growing up in the city.
