Why, when I already have two editions of this book (not to mention Peake's Complete Nonsense) do I need a third? Because: i) This has 12 previously unpublished Peake sketches on glossy paper; ii) I have Christmas and birthday book tokens nagging to be used; iii) I am cursed by the collecting bug. Perhaps, only maybe and possibly perhaps, I might divest myself of one of the other editions when I have my next library rationalisation. In the meantime, I shall enjoy re-reading some of my favourite poems and will bask in the Technicolour glow of the illustration of Uncle Jake, who became a snake but never found it out and, as no one mentions it, one sees him still about.

Z really liked this, mostly because the nonsense verse gave him an Edward Lear vibe. I found it to be an extraordinarily difficult read aloud. ( )
