But Dad!

We call our teacher Miss But one day little Tommy Forgot what he should call her And he called her Mommy! And when he said it, we all laughed, He was a silly bunny But Tommy only laughed as well - He thought 'twas awful funny! The poems in this delightful collection by Gabriel Fitzmaurice reflect the high spirits and humour of young people. Puppies abound as do all manner of childhood preoccupations - brothers and sisters, spiders, birthdays, nature walks, playing hide-and- seek, shadows, clowns, autumn leaves, tonsillectomies, Mums and Dads and Halloween. All appear in a totally unexpected way as if through the eyes of the child. A new collection of poems by the author of The Moving Stair.
