Description
This a book of easy poetry for children, in bite-sized pieces. All selections are no longer than four lines and all are quite silly. Poems are placed, one to a page, so pieces of the book may be consumed and enjoyed ... rather like a chocolate ... or a frog, if one is so inclined. Children may wish to enter into the creative process by adding their own drawings or extra verses. This is a book meant to a starting point for exploration rather than a finished work of art. The surreal imagination is a wonderful playground for children and those who remain child-like. It is the author's fervent wish to be paid in the currency of shy smiles and even the occasional guffaw. An amused snort will do in a pinch.This book may be read to younger children who have their wits about them, or, more properly, read by children themselves between the ages of 7 and 12. Of course, if you haven't lost your taste for surreal humour, the poems may equally be enjoyed by adults.Similar in style to Spike Milligan's poetry for children, a debt of gratitude must be paid to him for the hours of enjoyment he provided in the author's youth.
