About this listen

Best-selling poets Roger McGough and Brian Patten read a sizzling selection of their own hilarious poems from their respective collections, Sky in the Pie and Gargling with Jelly. With music, jokes and irresistibly funny verse, this is poetry with a difference that will appeal to all children who love ridiculous rhymes.

Patten and McGough perform some of their humerous short pieces from Sky In The Pie (McGough) and Gargling With Jelly (Patten). I wish they'd commit more of their collections to Audible as listening to each perform their works is how it should be received rather than merely reading it ourselves. Both are great performers.

Some lovely pieces

Gargling with Jelly was a fantastic read many years ago and I expected this to be equally good. Sadly, it did not live up to my expectations. It is a brief ramble through a number of poems which didn’t hold together with any kind of theme or structure that was apparent.

Disappointing
