Poetry of how we shape what is lost or past, and how it shapes us.Bernard O’Donoghue investigates anchorage as a place we build for ourselves out of memory and story. The Ireland of his youth is rich in colour and precise in detail, and while he acknowledges the power of the past, he also brings it into question: ''I wish I''d never started on this story; / It may have been a dream, or maybe not . . .'' O''Donoghue''s informal and at times playful tone is that of a poet disarming themselves as well as their reader. Here are the paradoxes at the heart of human nature: what we are most attached to can be, in the end, what ties us down; the reluctance to return can arise out of the fear of finding ourselves locked out.''O''Donoghue''s poems are an object lesson in how to write poetry that matters.'' PN Review''The poignancy of O''Donoghue''s migratory imagination is . . . the perfect travelling companion.'' Times Literary Supplement''Compelling and simple diction . . . full of gentle, sometimes undetectable flashes of humour.''

Each chapter of Frog Day covers a single frog during a single hour, highlighting how twenty-four different species spend their time. Our day begins at midnight in Indonesia, with the rustle of leaves above. It’s not a bird, but Wallace’s flying frog, using its webbed feet and emerald-green skin flaps to glide through the forest canopy. In the early hours of the morning, we hear a horned marsupial frog “bopping” and a wood frog “quacking” to attract mates. At six o’clock in the morning, beneath a streetlight in Honolulu, we meet a corpulent, invasive cane toad slurping insects—and sometimes snakes, lizards, turtles, birds, and mice. At noon, we watch parenting in action as an African bullfrog bulldozes a path through the mud to free his tadpoles from a drying pond.

Meet Frog. Frog likes splashing in the pond, leaping from her lily pad and catching insects on her long, curly, whirly tongue. And she loves to RIBBITTTTT. But Frog has a secret . . . Before she could do ANY of these things, she was just one of a million teeny, tiny eggs in the furthest corner of the pond. So how did that little egg come to be Frog? Join Frog on an adorable adventure in the pond, full of facts about the different life stages of frogs - from egg to tadpole to froglet to frog - and watch the life cycle begin all over again.
