Book excerpt: What can be said about a book with a title like this? One, that it's very funny, and two, its author is extremely popular with the many thousands of kids he has amused and captivated during his career as a children's performance poet. After several years working undercover, as he puts it, as a teacher, Andrew decided to rectify what he saw as the lack of suitable poetry teaching material by writing his own. Since then his poems have been featured in many anthologies: this book is his first published collection. Why not have a furtive peek inside these lurid covers and see what all the fuss is about. Titles such as The Old and Crusty Loo, The Everlasting Nappy and There's Nothing Quite Like a Cowpat should give you a basic grasp of Andrew's subject matter: but reader, beware - check your corsets first and only scan these pages if you are unembarrassed about laughing out loud in public. Welcome to the murky world ofAlways Eat Your Bogies!
