A fantastic collection of poems from the wonderful James Carter, in which he talks about amazing inventions, teaches us how to play air guitar, explores nature, visits outer space, writes a fantasy Christmas list and gives us invaluable advice about time-travelling underpants . . .

DON'T FORGET TO HOLD ON TO THE SIDES OF YOUR PANTS

and to chant OUT LOUD The Time Travelling Underpants Owners' Mantra

before each time-trip :

My pants are warm and free from grime

and as I journey far in time

I travel safe with peace

of mind : my pants

are clean -
