A selection of children's poetry and writings ('Unspun Socks for A Chicken's Laundry', 'A Book of Milliganimals', 'Silly Verse for Kids' and much more) reveals Spike's irresistible connection with the childlike imagination and a brillant sense of the ridiculous. All the favourite and funniest stories are there. For those who want an excellent introduction to the mind of Milligan or a welcome return to a much-loved genius, this is the ultimate Milligan reader.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Book Express","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41809515511882,"sku":"128t","price":13.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/9101\/8826\/files\/128t_1.jpg?v=1764166949","url":"https:\/\/www.bookexpress.nz\/products\/the-essential-spike-milligan-by-spike-milligan-128t","provider":"Book Express","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
