Review
The Little Book of Vegan Poems is a delightful collection of poetry for your vegan child. It's the first vegan poetry book for children I have come across, so it's quite a pleasant surprise. Offering up 22 poems in all, there are topics from everyday vegan living to animal and human rights and environmental concerns that will touch any child's heart. With Benjamin's &"radical rapper" approach some of his poems will stir a bit of activism into their soul as well. --http://www.vegfamily.com/book-reviews/little-vegan-poems.htm
Benjamin Zephaniah is simply amazing. This wonderful book provides all the reasons why people should be vegans. With levity and intelligence Benjamin wondrously writes about animal rights, ecology, reverence for all life, health and the paramount goal to live in a universally peaceful planet. This is a must read for children and adults who love animals and who want the world to become a more humane and less violent place. --Brien Comerford, Amazon reviewer
The Little Book of Vegan Poems, aimed at both children and adults, begins with a compilation of definitions from various dictionaries and encyclopedias before moving into the poetry. This little book has it all: veganism, animal rights, nature, limericks, hell, even vegan erotic poetry some cute, some vaguely disturbing, many nonsensical, all eco-friendly, makes me wonder if this book was printed on recycled paper. --http://www.spiralnature.com/reviews/fiction-literature/little-book-vegan-poems-benjamin-zephaniah.html

Benjamin Zephaniah Is England's Poet For Animals and Veganism!,
By
This review is from: The Little Book of Vegan Poems (Poetry) (Paperback)
This compassionate, amusing, spiritual and humane book enumerates the myriad reasons why humans should cease and desist from killing animals, birds, fish and all creatures to placate our palates. Benjamin Zephaniah is a wholehearted pacifist who denounces all forms of violence. People of all ages will love this brilliant book of poems and prose. Benjamin Zephaniah is a great ideologist seeking universal peace, racial and ethnic harmony, and love for all creatures ! He is entertaining and compelling. In addition to " Vegan Poems" it is imperative to purchase the mesmerizing and evocative " Talking Turkeys" and " Funky Chickens". Benjamin Zephaniah merits accolades for his creativity and reverence for all life ! He exemplifies the love of animals that so many "BRITS" cherish !

If you are a vegan who likes benjamin Zephaniah you'll love this!!,

This review is from: The Little Book of Vegan Poems (Poetry) (Paperback)
On buying this book I was concerned that it would be too serious and depressing though it really was a pleasure to read. Many of the peoms where about certain animals in a very humorous way, along with some more meaningfull but still enjoyable peoms. He manages to discuss issues important to vegans without it becoming depressing or making us think of all the things we disagree with in this world. Though many of the peoms do discuss the issues associated with milk and eggs so it may not be as good for vegetarians, though I have a vegetarian friend who enjoyed it grealy. Some of the issues even drift into other forms of animal rights that aren't as commonly discussed, for example "gender pretender" which discusses dogs are sometimes treated like toys. Yet it still somehow manages to make you laugh at the end.
A brilliant and fabulous book, my respect for benjamin Zephaniah is now much higher. He's amazing!! If the title attracted you, you shouldn't be wasting time reading these reviews. It is what your looking for. :)

Brilliant!,

This review is from: The Little Book of Vegan Poems (Poetry) (Paperback)
Forgive me but im not very knowledgeable about poetry, though i have been a vegan now since i was 14, some 24 years now.Got the book as a present from my mum at Christmas, and it is a wonderful book to read. The poems are funny, touching, with lots of humility and compassion. His conviction is without doubt stronger than i imagined upon reading this book. Meat eaters could be offended, or they may see sense and actually stop eating animals, lets hope so anyway. I have now read this several times already in the past 4 weeks and its such a joy to read, and a bigger joy to discover. Zephaniah is the poet for today, the poet who speaks from the heart, and long may he do so =o)
