Some of the illustrations are titled: “The flame-cats and the black man coming down the chimney”, “The game-cupboard comes to life”, “David finds the mint-man in the bank”, “The recovering of Uncle Popacatapetl”, “The telegram rescues Uncle P. From the mint-man”, “Miss Bones sitting on David’s thumb”, “David uses the telephone in the cow porter’s tail” “Noah pursues David”; and many more whacky characters with equally more strange characteristics. 10% of the profit from the sale of this book is donated to charities. ================ TAGS & KEYWORDS: David Blaize, Blue door, dream, dreamscape, dreamland, sword, bumpity, bottom, adventures, aeroplanes, delicious, candidate, extraordinary, beastly, sir sirloin, london, gold, spectacles, butt, duke, cats whiskers, chimney, telegram, airmen, butler, chauffeur, certificate, fireman, shoemaker, golden, porter, rhyme, gentleman, canon, sovereign, rook, ark, elephant, train, birds, bones, popacatapetl, spider, david blaize, giraffe, miss muffet, brigadier general, noah, Flame cats, black man, chimney, Blue Door, games cupboard, Mint man, bank, Uncle, Rhyme family, Miss Bones, cow porter, bald-headed, lark-flight, Field-Marshal, guard of honour, trout, registry office, marriage
