<p><strong><em>Batty Ballads</em></strong> is a crazy collection of funny story-poems with many full colour illustrations by Colin West himself. The characters you can meet include Freda, a flat-footed fairy, a dirty cowboy called Bert, King Neptunes¿s naughty nephew and young Gordon Glass, the boy who ignored notices. </p><p>There are a host of animal characters too, such as a sea-faring cat who tells of fantastic adventures, a pig called Sam who isn¿t very good at going to market, and a collection of creatures who help to make a truly incredible (and rather inedible) cake. </p><p>You¿ll also meet some colourful dinosaurs as you¿ve never seen before, a pair of turnips who visit London, a ginger wig which undergoes various uses, and (if you are more observant than Fergus McPherson) you may even catch sight of the Loch Ness Monster. </p><p>All the poems are strong in rhyme and rhythm and are complemented by the author¿s hilarious illustrations. Colin West¿s verses have been anthologised
