Pamela Allen's delightfully awkward anti-hero sets out with Mr Bean-like determination to pick blackberries. Disastrous consequences inevitably follow when a jealous bull resents the unwelcome attention the cows shower upon him. The verse romps along and the illustrations provide a fitting accompaniment. This will be a great favourite in Nurseries and Infant Classes.
