About the Book

Trains in the distance, man, the world rumbles by
waitin for the stars now to tear back the sky.

Every wall must rattle when this change comes crashin in
before we start let’s fall apart – tomorrow, we begin.

A powerful new collection of contemporary poems for teenagers from Matt Goodfellow, winner of the CLiPPA 2024 and author of Let's Chase Stars Together and The Final Year.

Ideal for young people aged 11+


With poems about everything from navigating your first day of secondary school at eleven to finding your first love at sixteen, this collection explores the highs, lows and messy middles of teenage life. Told in Matt Goodfellow’s engaging and powerful style, this book takes the reader on an emotional rollercoaster; from anger at your teachers to those blissful, simple days with your mates. With poems that sensitively deal with difficult issues, there is a space in Matt’s poetry for all teens to feel seen, whether poetry is their thing or not!

'Goodfellow has the knack for choosing all the right words' - The Guardian

Review :
Matt Goodfellow gets better and better with each book he writes. Tomorrow We Begin is relatable and true, magical and transformative. I loved it and you will too. This piecemeal collection of free-verse poems features voices experiencing the teenage years in different ways — whether the joker at the back of the maths class or the kid who is a regular in detention — and is aptly subtitled. With characteristic warmth, empathy and humour, Goodfellow’s newest 11+ poetry collection chronicles teenage experiences from starting secondary to sitting in isolation, suffering through maths, soaking up lunchbreak sun and succumbing to first love.
