This book is full of poems, stories, riddles and things which it is difficult to say what they are except that they are surprising! Eric wrote them to entertain his grandchildren during the covid-19 pandemic lockdowns from November 2020 to March 2021 when schools were closed and many children had to do their lessons at home. Only three of the poems are about the pandemic itself, the rest of them and the stories are about all sorts of strange things so that anyone reading them could forget about being lockdown prisoners!

Rosie the Hippo was always hungry and ate everything she came across which one day led to something very strange happening to her. Cheddar the donkey wanted a job like the other animals on the farm and they found him a most surprising one. Wally Wheelbarrow never went anywhere without his wheelbarrow which was very fortunate on the day he met the Queen. You can read about their remarkable adventures and those of Miss Chippo Lata and Porky who escaped from the sausage factory, and the dancing table, and the walking tree, and Pippa who met a mermaid who was not a bit like she had expected, and lots more in this book of poems, stories and riddles. There's also a recipe using ice cream!
