Silly Verse for Kids | Spike Milligan
1 post | 1 read | 1 to read
A collection of the absurd, ridiculous, sublime and characteristically anarchic verse from the brilliant Spike Milligan. With his very own illustrations, this collection, which includes the famous On the Ning Nang Nong will make you laugh from the bottom of your belly - just like Spike did.

Silly Verse for Kids | Spike Milligan
Pickpick

This is an illustrated collection of 34 silly verse for children aged 9+ by Spike Milligan including On The Ning Nang Nong, A Thousand Hairy Savages and Today I Saw A Little Worm. Some of the illustrations in the version I read (published in 1968) don‘t really pass for modern day attitudes but the verses themselves are brilliantly silly and ripe with Milligan‘s distinctive voice and I think that kids will love the rhyming and the sheer fun of them
