Revolting Rhymes (Picture Puffins) Best Selling > Books > Humorous Verse by: Roald Dahl November 29, 2001 Everyone knows the original stories of Cinderella, Jack and the Beanstalk, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Goldilocks and the Three Bears, Little Red Riding Hood and The Wolf and The Three Little Pigs, written by Charles Perrault (Cinderella), Brothers Grimm (all the rest); but Roald Dahl has changed the stories and put in some gruesome humour - these rewrites are not suitable for grumpy old grown ups so be aware! My favourite story out of all of Dahl's altered fairy tales is definitely Little Red ... Read More: |

Fox in Socks (Dr Seuss Green Back Books) Best Selling > Books > Humorous Verse by: Dr. Seuss May 06, 2003 Dr. Seuss, the famous author of `The Cat in the Hat' and `how the Grinch stole Christmas', has written this masterpiece (which is tricky to say)! Fox in Socks is a brilliant board for books and it is a book of crazy tongue twisters. It is a simple, sturdy book for babies of all ages (as it says on the back). Dr. Seuss is great if you want a laugh or you need some cheering up (although hit might frustrate you at times)! In this book, there is a fox, Knox, chicks, Sue and Slow Joe Crow. In ... Read More: |

Shark in the Park Best Selling > Books > Humorous Verse by: Nick Sharratt February 01, 2007 I thought this would be a "baby" book as it was in board format in our library: but it isn't! Really fun rhymes "Timothy Pope, Timothy Pope, Is looking through his telescope" And very witty illustations. Good for directions too (left, right, up and down) which are repeated often. It's good for predication too - getting my 3 yr old to think what the shape could be if it wasn't a shark's fin... I'd say it was a good toddler read 2 1/2 to about 4 possibly. After that it may have a ... Read More: |

Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats (Faber Children's Classics) Best Selling > Books > Humorous Verse by: T.S. Eliot April 09, 2001 I have always loved these poems. Elliot really managed to capture the personality of different cats in his different poems, which will sparkle out to anyone who has ever loved or owned a cat, a little bit of the Rum Tug Tugger here, a bit of Bustopher Jones there... cats to a tee, and wonderful fun! Buy a copy with Edward Gorey's fantastic illustrations, they really bring the poems to life. I'd also recommend this to future cat owners - heed the words of 'The Addressing of Cats' - you've got to treat cats with ... Read More: |
