DEAD FUNNY is one of four sparkling new collections of nonsense poems which mark the return of Collins Children's Books to poetry publishing. John Foster is a well-known poet and teacher. His book, Wham Bang Orangutan is hugely popular (published OUP).

New and existing material has been brought together to provide this morbidly humorous collection. Well-known poets include Roger McGough, Paul Cookson, Eric Finney and John Foster himself.

Susan avoided the cracks with care
And always trod upon the square;
An unwise move, she was to discover -
She stepped on a manhole without a cover.
Carol Carman

Industry Reviews

Completely Crazy Poems
No one can fail to dip into this book and come away without a cheeky smirk on their face. One to chase away the winter blues.
Funday Times

Ridiculous Rhymes
Fantastic stuff to introduce youngsters to poetry before they go all silly and wander like clouds.
Dorset Echo

A Century of Children's Poems
It is a compelling mix of all genres and treatments, and readers are sure to be enriched whether they dip in and out of the book or progress through it in a structured way. Enticing and rewarding, this collection gives a real insight into the superb variety of poems on the 20th century. Bookseller
