Terry Denton stinks!

Dear Terry and Andy

I think Terry Denton stinks
And, no, it isn’t what you think
It’s not that his old undies pong
It’s just that all his books are long
And filled with things so very gross
They put me off my breakfast toast

I have a son – he reads quite well
But after reading likes to tell
The funny parts of books he’s read
Which is bad enough at time for bed
But the horrid little bloke
Wants to make his Mother choke

So lately he has started reading
Stuff with gore and guts and bleeding
From Terry’s books while having dinner!
I tell you this is not a winner
What do you think ‘bout snot and poo?
Not good with food, I’m telling you!

My smarty kids have just corrected
Me, by saying he’s connected
With Andy Griffiths, who, they said
Has all the Yuk stuff in his head
It’s him who writes down all the words
And then these two revolting nerds

Make a book which Terry draws
I’m certain there should be some laws
To make sure it’s against the rules
To let these post-pubescent fools
Publish books so horrid boys
And girls can grin and find their joys

By bringing up their Mother’s lunch
So I am sending you this bunch
Of words to tell you what I feel
I hope you understand the real
Feeling that I have for you
It may be you’re the only two.

Grown up men whose work I know
Can make a loving Mother go
To the library, axe in hand
To chop down all the big bookstands
So never more into our house
Will come a book which makes me rouse
Upon my darling boys for reading!
Please hear my slow pathetic pleading

And….

Keep up the good work

Kind Regards,
Kelli Dendle
PS: Sadly my daughter finds your work somewhat amusing too.

I believe that the last time terry took off his socks, 100 people died, and 1000’s more were rushed to horse-spit-als
