Help your children learn Milliganese with A Child's Treasury of Milligan, a classic collection of daft short stories and nonsense rhymes from the king of Downright Silliness, Spike Milligan.
This stunning anthology of Milligan's poems and stories for children comprises his classic books Unspun Socks for A Chicken's Laundry, A Book of Milliganimals, Silly Verse for Kidsand much more. A great book for sharing and reading aloud (once your child gets hold of one of the remarkably silly and occasionally quite naughty verses, there'll be no stopping them...)it would also appeal to more reluctant readers who may well be persuaded by the silliness of it all, and enjoy reading it alone in short bursts. Grown-ups beware: if you are a fully fledged Milligan fan you may well find this book irresistible. Age 7 and over--Susan Harrison

Spike Milligan's publishing career began over forty years ago when Silly Verse for Kids was published in 1959. His poems were inspired by listening to his own children and subsequently his grandchildren and marvelling at the way they could invent new words or incorporate sound effects into their everyday language. Spike did not regard children as small adults but as entirely different species who lived in a secret magical world that very few adults understood. For decades he delved into this world delighting children - and adults - of all ages with his poems and stories. Illustrated throughout with Spike's own drawings and specially commissioned artworks this is an ideal read-alone or read-aloud book for Spike fans of all ages featuring: Silly Verse for Kids (1959) The Bald Twit Lion (1968) A Book of Milliganimals (1968) Unspun Socks from a Chicken's Laundry (1968) Sir Nobonk and the Terrible Awful Dreadful Nasty Dragon (1982) and Startling Verse for All the Family (1987).
