Creative Cuts - Fun poetry for Christmas?

A decorated Christmas tree and a fun poetry book – what more could you want during the festive season? Author and poet Marg Gibbs from Mapleton has written 24 poems, two for each of her 11 grandchildren, plus another two for luck!

Goose on Christmas Eve is ideal for children aged 5- 13 and their families. Have you ever wondered whether Santa likes wearing black boots, or could he get away with thongs on a steamy Aussie summer? What mischief does Rudolph get up to in the kitchen?

Marg enjoys the fun of rhyming words but admits that any wordplay can be appealing. Feelings and emotions are shown in Twenty-Four Wishes, Inside the Heart of You and Peace on Earth. Read and recite at Jingle Toes and Goanna on the Run. Marg has added her stencils and creative collages with Jenny Catalano and Zoe Bennett’s art.

There will be book signings at The Little Book Nook, Palmwoods, on Saturday November 2; and Rosetta Books, Maleny, on Saturday December 7. To find out more, visit mjgibbs.com.au or see Marg at the Mapleton and Montville markets.
