The My Word! Stories af Frank Muir

A book of erudite puns that are simply dreadful. It must have been delightful to hear the duo read these on the BBC radio show from which they were taken.

What-a-mess the Beautiful (What-a-mess) af Frank Muir

As a child I read "What A Mess" and did not discover there were more books in this series until I was an adult visiting Hay On Wye. All of the picture books in this series tell great stories and the pictures are beyond cute and clever. NO matter your age these books are a definite must read.
