Send to friendA & C Black published the book Sonsense Nongs, Michael Rosen's 'silly songs, daft ditties and loony lyrics for the young' which directly key into playground humour with a lively blend of pop and music hall. The musical arrangements with Peter Gosling are brilliantly inventive and the whole is great for car journeys. There are funny versions of wellknown songs like 'Do Your Ears Hang Low?' and others with infectious choruses and the sort of silly-story songs children love. It's all so well produced that grown-ups won't be driven crazy. In fact, I think, they'll be happy to join in.
