Barmy Ballads is a beautifully produced hardback with over a hundred pages introducing an array of crazy characters. Meet a nutty knight, a naughty witch, a smell pirate, a not-very-jolly jester, a child genius, a hungry giant, a clever donkey, an invisible mischief-maker and lots more.
Barmy Ballads is a beautifully produced hardback collection of humorous poetry, introducing a wonderful array of crazy characters. Meet a nutty knight, a naughty witch, a smelly pirate, a not-very-jolly jester, a child genius, a hungry giant, a clever donkey, an invisible mischief-maker and many more.
There is also a full supporting cast, including a crafty wizard, a lovesick fisherman, a helpful octopus, a hip hop drummer, seven washerwomen, a gang of bank robbers, a fiery dragon or two, not to mention the Queen of Spain and the old kitchen sink!
Best-selling poet Roger McGough hailed Colin’s previous collection, Bonkers Ballads, as a “cracking book” and now Colin is back with a whole new bunch of ballads even bigger and barmier than before.
“Barmy, brilliant and absurd - Colin West’s mastery of witty improbabilities in rhyme, combined with the quirky charm of his illustrations, makes this book irresistible.”
