'The rhythms and language of these poems will continue to delight children' School Librarian Magazine
From tropical summer to icy winter, this wonderful collection of children's poetry evokes the sights, sounds and seasons of two very different places. Perfect for reading aloud and reciting with children aged 7 and above, these joyful poems reflect life in the Caribbean and Britain from the voice of a best-loved poet.
Grace Nichols' first collection of poetry for children, Come on into my Tropical Garden, was published in 1988. Give Yourself a Hug followed in 1994. Sun Time Snow Time combines these two collections in a single-volume edition.
