The Wee Book of King O' the Midden by Matthew Fitt
Following the immense success of King o the Midden, The Wee Book of King o the Midden, presents the favourite rhymes from the bigger book in a dinky wee format. Are the contents of this wee poetry book sweet and safe? No. They come with a health warning - if you don't like to read about things that are rude, scunnersome, surreal, bizarre or just plain daft, The Wee Book of King o the Midden is probably not for you. This collection of rhymes and poems will appeal to anyone with a warped sense of humour. In short sharp bursts of verse, a menagerie of contemporary Scots writers give their views on such diverse subjects as animals, folk at work, families and home life, aliens, superheroes, food and sport. Quick to read and easy to learn and recite, the results will fire up the dullest imagination and inspire children to put pen to paper and write their own verses of madness and mayhem.
Matthew Fitt is a published novelist and poet as well as a translator. An acknowledged expert in the field of Scots language education, Matthew has written numerous children's books and has translated a number of titles into Scots including Roald Dahl's The Eejits and Geordie's Mingin Medicine.
