How to Embarrass Grown-ups

Paul Cookson

About the book

An anthology full of irreverent and cheeky poems about embarrassing grown-ups, whether it’s them making you cringe, or you making them blush. Things like your dad dancing badly and your mum getting out photos of you as a baby . . . Or scenarios such as you asking guests rude questions and painting Dad’s face with make-up. Be warned – this’ll make you squirm!

A Sumo Wrestler Chappy

A sumo wrestler chappy

One day in the ring was unhappy

When thrown to the ground

His mum pinned him down

And in view of the crowd changed his nappy.
