A huge 'Thank You" to Stephen for donating his bonzaaa book, "The Billy That Died With Its Boots On", as a prize for The Copper Croc Awards. It's a brilliant book & I will have to be ultra disciplined to not wander off to read it all, when The Copper Croc has much yet to be finalised.

Re: THANK YOU STEPHEN WHITESIDE
Good on you Stephen - and as I have your "Billy" book in my collection now, I can vouch that whoever receives it will certainly enjoy its varied and quirky content.
It reminds me of a comment that Orson Welles made about Oscar Wilde's story "The Happy Prince". He said "it purports to be a story for children" - but of course anyone reading it soon realises it is so much more. I thought the same about your book.
Cheers
Shelley
