Crazy Mayonnaisy Mum 

Julia Donaldson

Waterstones Says

Crazy Mayonnaisy Mum is packed with all sorts of poems and rhymes including a sequence of number rhymes, action rhymes, noisy rhymes and more thoughtful pieces too.

If tigerlilies and dandelions growled,
And cowslips mooed, and dogroses howled,
And snapdragons roared and catmint miaowed,
My garden would be extremely loud.

Crazy Mayonnaisy Mum is a fantastic collection of funny, silly and entertaining poems for the very young from acknowledged master of rhyme and author of The Gruffalo, Julia Donaldson.
