One night Peter hops into the dark forest.<span> </span>He meets some Whimper-Whineymen and discovers that not only do the Whimper-Whineys whine all the time, but they are very ill-mannered and rude. He discovers that everything is sour in Whimper-Whineyland and decides his mother was right! If only he can get back home… a recent critique, “Though there are other books out there for children about whining, I cannot imagine any parent or guardian not wanting to read this book to their child!... <span> </span>Parents everywhere applaud you!” </span></span>

Reviews
"Like all good poets, Michele is an acute observer of life – offering insights and perspectives that inform, amuse and sometimes shock. She is mistress of the unusual perspective... those who thought they hated poetry. This is the book that will change their minds - just as it did mine." Jane Alexander, 'Britain's top writer on alternative therapies' (Daily Mail)
