Once again this teller of tales has assembled a collection, and what a collection! Included here is his 1,000th Poem entitled 'The Terror', a look back into childhood paranoia. But there is humour here as well, and riveting scenes of horror that will make your hair stand on end, (if you have any left, which he doesn't). There are sixty-four different scenarios here that will keep your imagination titivated, and your heart perpetually halted in expectation of the worst that can happen, only to discover he has fooled you yet again. It is the twist in his endings that readers have come to love and anticipate, and the driving rhythms that force each story along to its eventual conclusion. Oh yes, this is poetry at its finest, rhyme, metre, all executed with a nonchalance that makes the reader smile in approbation. It would be advisable to read only one poem per night, but of course, you won't be able to, because once begun on that dark ride, you will find yourself pushing on inevitably to the end. Enjoy!

In this mischievous and utterly original debut, Hansel and Gretel walk out of their own story and into eight other classic Grimm-inspired tales. As readers follow the siblings through a forest brimming with menacing foes, they learn the true story behind (and beyond) the bread crumbs, edible houses, and outwitted witches. Fairy tales have never been more irreverent or subversive as Hansel and Gretel learn to take charge of their destinies and become the clever architects of their own happily ever after.

A collection of Narrative Poetry by Australian Poet David Lewis Paget.

In the follow-up to I Will Never Not Ever Eat a Tomato, Charlie helps Lola get ready for bed, despite the tigers, whales, and other animals that serve as obstacles.

Welcome to Goblin Dell, the repository for yet another collection of narrative poems from my pen, the thirteenth. Within this colourful Dell are the imaginative streams of an alternative world, a world that we all visualise at times if only to escape the one we're in. This new world of ours doesn't adhere to the physical laws, rules and regulations that presently bind us. It transcends all that, being beholden only to the limits of our imaginations, taking us to distant countries and landscapes where we may meet the strange and untrammelled denizens of these regions without suffering their infections, or paying the price for their incapacities. Though they will fill your eyes and mind with the temporary shock of amazement, you will still be able to part from them, and find your way home, this I promise you. But I won't promise that you will get this book back if you lend it out....
