Description
A groundbreaking work in the field of children’s literature, Edward Lear’s 1845 A Book of Nonsense is full of fun and silliness suitable for all ages. Poems and limericks poking fun at all aspects of life combine with the rather touching whimsy of such favorites as “The Owl and the Pussycat” in this charming collection of Lear’s most beloved works. Zany recipes and some wacky scientific tidbits fill out this wild ride through Lear’s amazing literary imagination. You could be five or 105, but you’ll find plenty of laughter in the pages of A Book of Nonsense.
