"More than 100 poems, speeches, song lyrics and book extracts, from Martin Luther King to Mark Twain, are grouped into eight sections on subjects as diverse as childhood, happiness and sadness, kindness and courage ― and every word is to be cherished."-Sally Morris, The Daily Mail
An inspiring, accessible and powerful collection of words that matter.
Published in a gorgeous hardback edition, with a stunning neon and foil-stamped cover, ribbon marker, and beautifully designed insides, Writes of Passage is the perfect gift for every occasion - birthdays, Christmas, school leaving celebrations, confirmations, bar and bat mitzvahs, and more.
