Tomorrow All Will Be Beautiful by Bridgid LowryBrigid Lowry uses her wonderful and often surprising prose in this collection of short stories and poetry. There are lovely phrases scattered through the stories – “mashed banana story”, or describing girls as “bewildered little puddings with … pretty names”. You can pretty much delve into any of the stories and get beautiful examples of Brigid Lowry language - examples that make you stop and think "goodness that's an amazing way of saying that!"
I guess if one was looking for a theme to the stories and poetry it is just “Life”.
Definitely one for the older more accomplished readers.

I notice you have lots of covers here - where do they come from - can i use them?
Hi there
Before we launched Create Readers, we asked a number of publishers for their permission to use images of the publications on the blog. On the right hand side of the blog, we have put the following statement: "Images of book covers appear courtesy of the book's publisher. Copyright is retained by the publisher."
I'm afraid we can't give you permission to use the images. If you'd like some more advice, please feel free to email me: website.changes AT natlib.govt.nz
in this book i have learnt a lot of things. there are many small stories that can help you get through your hard times. some of these stories make you laugh and some may make you cry. its a truly great book for most girls to read.
