The Kingfisher Book of Comic Verse by Roger Mcgough

Of this book Morag Styles and Pat Triggs wrote in the BFK Guide to Poetry: "This really is a fabulous book, comic verse at its best. McGough doesn't take a crude or simplistic view of humour: there are poems which give you a good belly laugh; but many others surprise, provoke or quietly amuse. Rich in content and illustration, Caroline Holden provides brilliantly funny drawings".
