Slightly Salty

Along with frequent visits to the sea, this eclectic collection of poems by Colin Newnham features animals (both real and imaginary), historical events and the odd self-portrait. The poems are illustrated with charming simplicity by the author himself."You can find out about the Arty Guffles and meet a Drizard, there are some comments by Dolphins and even Rats in space. An All Amphibian Band and a Snail hitchhiking to France will make you smile, Polar Bears and Giraffes, Newts and Gannets can be found and a pecker knocker is a creature new to science and makes an interesting adornment to your front door."From Colin Newnham's Introduction
