About this book...

What can be said about a book with a title like this? One, that it's very funny, and two, its author is extremely popular with the many thousands of kids he has amused and captivated during his career as a children's performance poet.

After several years working "undercover", as he puts it, as a teacher, Andrew decided to rectify what he saw as the lack of suitable poetry teaching material by writing his own. Since then his poems have been featured in many anthologies: this book is his first published collection.

Why not have a furtive peek inside these lurid covers and see what all the fuss is about. Titles such as "The Old and Crusty Loo", "The Everlasting Nappy" and "There's Nothing Quite Like a Cowpat" should give you a basic grasp of Andrew's subject matter: but reader, beware - check your corsets first and only scan these pages if you are unembarrassed about laughing out loud in public.
