It’s been a couple of years since Gez Walsh last rattled the windows of the publishing world with one of his zany high-octane collections of Potty Poetry.  In this twelfth year of the Potty Poets series, Gez’s latest collection, Great Aunt Fanny’s Moustache: potty poems of facial fur, will surely delight his legions of fans in these islands and beyond. 

The lunatic world Gez created, when he first bounded into the wacky world of performance verse in 1997 with The Spot on my Bum, is as bold, brash - and frankly weird - as ever.  Despite this being his thirteenth book, it’s not unlucky for his many fans who will wallow in the surreal landscapes he rhymes into existence.  The characters who people these landscapes have the curious power of being seriously batty and oddly familiar ... all at the same time.

By the way, if you are a bookseller reading this, you might like to note that The Spot on my Bum alone has generated sales of over 150,000 copies, and combined sales of the Potty Poets overall are well over the quarter-of-a-million mark.  Hard-pressed teachers know the value of poems that reach the parts of the class that Wordsworth’s daffodils cannot reach.  Even “reluctant readers” can’t help succumbing to a real live poet in their school reading Rhymes about Rude Things – and encouraging them to try writing their own!
