I couldn’t remember whether I’d ever read this before or not, and now I’m finished, I’m still not sure!

It is a children’s book, but a classic one - not sure how many kids of today would read it. It is funny - about a pudding which no matter how much you eat never gets consumed, and the pudding owners and some pudding stealers. All very silly, but in a good way, but I have to say, I feel a bit sorry for the pudding owners - I know I would get heartily sick of steak and kidney pie, boiled jam roll

I could not remember if I had read this book, so rather than quibble about the point, I decided to read the book either for the first time or for the second time.

I really enjoyed the book, I love the language and I love the drawings. Everything about this book is perfect because it is just so silly.

Bunyip Bluegum 'assuming an air of pleasure' sets off the see the world as he can no longer share with his Uncle on account of the length of his whiskers. Bunyip meets Bill Barnacle and Sam Sawnoff
