This book was a lot of fun to read. And hilarious! The poems are easy to read. I read this all in one sitting because I just could not stop reading it. So, I do recommend this book to anyone who has any kind of family! It is so funny you won't be able to stop reading it.

A very little book indeed, this contains only seven pieces of poetry, and one of those is a Limerick. It's fun doggerel, and competently presented stuff, with a light touch of black comedy. Worth considering.

Truly, “a little book of silly verse”

I found this description to be perfect. The poems are very silly, but this is not inconsistent with other Wilkie Martin’s writings. I enjoyed the book and it showed me a slightly different side of Martin than I saw in his Inspector Hobbes series.
Disclosure: I received a complimentary copy of this book via Netgalley for review purposes.
