Grandma
was Eaten by a Shark!
This brand new
collection of crazy people-poems is not only great fun, it includes many
of Andrea's most popular characters: Auntie
Betty (who
thinks she's Batgirl); Auntie
Ethel who is really an extraterrestrial; Miss
Nits the teacher with headlice; Mother
Christmas who wants you to send presents to
her; Spiderwoman who
has a very creepy-crawly plan to take over the world; and of course poor Grandma
who was eaten by a shark - but that was nothing compared to what happened
to the rest of her family!

| The
pictures are hilarious - but that's not surprising because they are
drawn by the remarkable cartoonist David Parkins,
illustrator of Dennis the Menace, countless children's picture books and poetry
anthologies. Each one is an absolute masterpiece! |

'I really enjoyed the poems in this book. I'm quite an old
child (nearly forty) and I enjoyed it as much, if not more than my
children. Excellent illustrations too.' Amazon.co.uk
