A Crocodile's Teeth cover

An illustrated collection of fifty funny poems by a master of the genre. This anthology of nonsense rhymes on a range of silly topics will have children (and adults) rolling with laughter – and all are illustrated in an absurdly appealing style. One example, Coathanger, begins: "I gave my love a coathanger. She flung it back at me. It acted like a boomerang, And hit her on the knee."

The most consistently good poet of the absurd for children since Edward Lear. * The Good Book Guide *
