Very good collection of humorous verse for children. Contains the word 'farter' which amused me, and my classmates, greatly aged 8 although today's children might be a bit more sophisticated. Or not. The poetry included ranges from Betjeman ('Hunter Trials'), Spike Milligan, and Ogden Nash to terrible Anon. doggerel, but it's all funny and guaranteed to cheer up a convalescing eight-year-old, for instance.
