This zany number book collaboration between Yeoman and Blake is tremendously successful. Verse and illustration complement each other with delicious absurdity. As Barnaby sails on this raft down to Limber Lea, he picks up an extraordinary collection of creatures and people. It is only by ingenuity and with the aid of the amazing contents of his red box that all arrive almost intact at their destination.
