Gottmer, a fly flew into the custard

Product details There was a fly in the custard The children's poetry collection 'There was a fly in the custard' by the award-winning duo Bette Westera and Sylvia Weve contains poems and thoughts about food. Eating (or being eaten) plays an important role in our daily lives. Not only do we eat every day, but the subject also comes up in all kinds of ways in our conversations. Bette Westera and Sylvia Weve know better than anyone how such a universal subject can be transformed into poetry and images. This poetry collection covers all kinds of food-related topics: from table manners to veganism, from sweet, salty and umami to what you should and should not eat. Together they provide a rich banquet of jokes and recipes, poems and monkey stories. Bette Westera and Sylvia Weve rightly belong to the premier league of Dutch children's poetry. Bette's poetry moves, but also makes you laugh and Sylvia's expressive style of illustration is something you will recognize from thousands. Both makers, together and individually, have won almost every literary prize there is. The fact that the books by the award-winning duo are gems is partly thanks to Steef Liefting, who has beautifully designed their book. The children's poetry collection 'There flew a fly in the custard' is packed with poems that are fun for children aged 9 and over (but also for their parents)!
