Biografía breve
Joyce Grenfell was a popular English actress and entertainer whose career spanned nearly 40 years and several continents.  She made her stage debut in 1939 and toured North Africa, Southern Italy, the Middle East and India performing for British troops in World War II.  Although she appeared in a number of films, she continued to record her music and humorous albums.  She worked on the BBC and acted in one-woman shows. She's still remembered today as one of Britain's top comediennes.

When young on holiday my Granny suggested I trying reading the Joyce Grenfell book that was there. I did and loved it. So in recent years I got this book. I think it is brilliant and very funny. The reason I took a star away was because my favourite are the Nursery ones so I wanted more of that!

This collection of poems range through many different moods-lyrical, wistful, funny, and sad-but all are full of wit and observation. The text is also accompanied by the poet's own sketches and Christmas cards that aim to conjure up a lost England.
