Riddledy Piggledy is a very special nursery rhyme book that young children (and their parents) will love. Award-winning poet Tony Mitton has chosen a selection of well-known nursery rhymes (with the help of Mother Goose), and for each one has written a riddle containing clues so that the reader can guess which rhyme is coming next. Every rhyme and riddle is beautifully illustrated by Paddy Mounter. The combination is delightful.
Tony Mitton is an award-winning poet, whose gently mesmerising, often humorous poetry is irresistible to both children and adults alike. He is an extremely versatile author, writing story poems and shorter verse with skill and wit. Tony does lots of author events, school visits and poetry readings and always leaves his audience entranced.
Paddy Mounter is a talented children's illustrator whose delicate line and watercolour fully complement Tony Mitton's entertaining and child-friendly text.
