Answers
➸When I was a child in the 1950s, if I wasn’t playing with the many shiny and exotic buttons in my mother’s button box, I would probably be reading from a book of poetry for children written by A A Milne, the creator of Christopher Robin, entitled When We Were Very Young. It was first published in 1924, and was illustrated by E H Shepard. It didn’t take long for it to become a best seller.
➸Butter or marmalade
➸One of my favourite poems was The King’s Breakfast, an engaging story of a monarch who enjoyed the simple pleasure of spreading butter on his bread for breakfast. But the cow who supplied the milk for the butter had gone on strike, suggesting that the king might like to try marmalade instead. The dejected ruler wants none of it, “Nobody” he whimpered, “could call me a fussy man; I only want a little bit of butter for my bread!”
➸Cinnamon blues
➸I was reminded of this charming poem and the king’s frustration on a recent trip to a seaside town in New Jersey where my husband was looking forward to breakfast in a café with his usual cappuccino with chocolate powder on top. On our first morning, we chose a comfortable, rather old fashioned looking place with newspapers provided, confidently expecting a classical cappuccino. What arrived looked quite satisfactorily foamy, but, to his horror, it was topped with cinna
