Everyday incidents become occasions for storytelling, with humour emerging from the gap between youthful intentions and the trouble that can follow them. In a poem about a ute, a boy's pursuit of an escaped vehicle unfolds as a small adventure, combining familiar country details with the pleasure of a tale told in verse. Photographs accompany the writing, adding a visual sense of people and place. Published by Akama Hills Publications in 1999, Young Johnnies invites readers to enjoy accessible poetry rooted in observation, memory and the liveliness of childhood, offering short pieces that can be read individually or shared aloud.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Value Junction ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68069523882196,"sku":"TVJ-035515","price":11.5,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0721\/3059\/2980\/files\/TVJ-035515-1.jpg?v=1792988719","url":"https:\/\/thevaluejunction.co.nz\/products\/young-johnnies-poems-harrison","provider":"The Value Junction ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
