Poetry

Mungojerrie and Rumpelteazer were a very notorious couple of cats.As knockabout clowns, quick-change comedians, tight-rope walkers and acrobats.And when you heard a dining-room smashThen the family would say: 'It's that horrible cat!It was Mungojerrie! and Rumpelteazer!' - And there's nothing at all to be done about that!Join the cat-burglars Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer in the fifth picture-book pairing from Arthur Robins and T. S. Eliot's Old Possum's cats, as they steal meat from the oven and pearls from the drawers.
