Batty Ballads by Colin West (Troubador) Illustrated by the author
Now here’s a book (it’s a hardback) that will be on and off the shelf for years to
come. It’s colourful, funny and packed full of quirky poems that children (and
their parents and grandparents) will want to go back to time and again. The
clever rhymes rollick along – inviting you to join in with chuckles and giggles.
The poet’s own illustrations are as delightful as the poems themselves. This book
will go on my shelf alongside AA Milne.
