What is Sticky Ends about?

A riotous collection of cautionary poems in which naughty, foolish and downright disgusting characters meet unforgettable sticky ends. Meet Felicity Finch, who cannot stop pinching; Vince the Mince, a vegetarian dog with an alarming passion for sprouts; and Squiggle McSquirm, a worm with a taste for adventure. Packed with black humour, lively rhymes and wonderfully gruesome illustrations, these anarchic verses turn everyday misbehaviour into hilarious poetic justice.
