Can Such Things Be?

Lawrence Prestidge is back with a brand new children’s book packed with hilarious, revolting and unforgettable rhymes. Featuring a whole host of colourful and entertaining characters, Can Such Things Be? is guaranteed to have young readers roaring with laughter.


From a magpie with a love of all things poop to the ghost of William Shakespeare, and from a cunning fox to a gory butcher, readers meet characters they won’t find elsewhere. These fun rhymes are imaginative and are perfect for both reluctant readers and children who love to read. 




Reminiscent of authors such as Roald Dahl and David Walliams, Can Such Things Be? follows the success of Lawrence’s previous children’s books. It will be enjoyed by young readers aged 7-11 years and those who enjoy humorous poetry.
