The illustrations are in the new Chris Riddle chosen poems book. They are wonderful and heart breaking in some cases (this one!)

scowler1 I can't read this without my eyes tearing up. Owen and Sassoon made a pacifist of me at sixteen. Love Chris Riddell, I have to get this! 6y
TrishB @scowler1 it‘s a wonderful collection, both the poems and the illustrations, I can highly recommend 👍🏻 It‘s called Poems to Live Your Life By. 6y

CarolynM Love this poem❤️ @scowler1 I was much the same age when I met them via Vera Britain's Testament of Youth. All of them a huge influence on my thinking. 6y

#ReadingResolutions #War

I am fascinated by the literature of the First World War. Wilfred Owen's poetry is heartbreaking, as is his story. Reading Siegfried Sassoon's Sherston Trilogy makes me feel like I was there.
