Nonsense Songs Book

A perfect introduction, with imaginative full-color paintings, to Edward Lear's wonderful world of nonsense

From one generation to the next, Edward Lear's nonsense rhymes have been beloved by children. Their joyful rhythms and glorious silliness catch the imaginations and the hearts of the young and the young-at-heart. Who can resist the Owl and the Pussycat, who went to sea in a beautiful pea-green boat? Or the Jumblies, whose heads are green and hands are blue, and who went to sea in a sieve? Or the Pobble who has no toes? Or the Quangle Wangle Quee, who had a hat a hundred and two feet wide so that nobody ever could see his face? They are all here in one book, gaily illustrated by a gifted English artist with pictures that complement the magical, comical, mysterious world of Edward Lear.

An illustrated collection of nonsense verses by the well-known nineteenth-century English writer and artist.
