My First Oxford Book of Nonsense Poems

by John Foster

My First Oxford Book of Nonsense Poems Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

A vibrant and varied selection of some of the finest nonsense verse ever written. From The Jumblies to the Jabberwocky by way of The Sugar Plum Tree and passing through The Land of Rumplydoodle, this is a fun-filled topsy-turvy upside-down and inside-out jaunt through a nonsense world of rhyme. This treasury of nonsense rhyme includes many of the childhood classics, by poets such as Edward Lear, Spike Milligan and Lewis Carroll as well as many from contemporary favorites. With full color illustrations, this is the perfect gift for anyone who likes to laugh!
