A long-awaited collection from Kit Wright complete with illustration from Posy Simmonds. If you liked Rabbiting On (Fontana Lions), you'll need to get this - or at least badger Penguin for the paperback. There are poems about Dad (lots), my sister, her boyfriend, Auntie Jean (who insists on kissing you):

a Whacking great Smacking great Wet one

Granny, and of course Dave Dirt. There's also a splendid carpet salesman - Walter Wall. Lots of fun, lots of rhymes, some thoughtful moments. Worth having.
