A whole world of enchantments, mystery, spirits and mages

A very magical poem from Grace Cook of the Joseph Whitaker School, and we really appreciate Grace’s decision to share her poem with us. Grace is a passionate reader and loves books. This certainly shows in her tremendous poetry, and we are sure everyone will enjoy reading ‘The Magic of a Book.’
The Magic of a Book
The first page turned
Utterly captivated
Transported to a world of magic and wonder
Of dragons and fairies
Of witches and spells
A world where the plaguing troubles of your own are lost
Where new happiness and friendships are found
A way to escape
A way to be free
A whole world of enchantments, mystery, spirits and mages
All enclosed in the pages of a book
Grace Cook, Year 7 Pupil at Joseph Whitaker School, Nottinghamshire
