I Din Do Nuttin, and other poems
Susanna Gretz
Twenty-three poems about West Indian children by the Guyanese poet. John Agard. Some poems are in dialect, some have local references - sucking sugar cane, eating snow cones, playing three-hole (a short of marbles). But most are about more universal childhood preoccupations - buying new shoes, birthdays, pets, parents. A lively collection to show that wherever and whoever you are things are different and the same.
