Edward Lear's nonsense rhymes are famed for their linguistic genius. Alan Bennett is a much-loved British playwright, screenwriter, actor and author.
A beautifully illustrated and packed edition which would make a
lovely gift.
*Made for Mums*
I love the way Usborne present these books, with a soft padded
cover and superb illustrations - they are ideal presents and books
to treasure. The old favourites are all here and there are also
many less familiar pieces to delight the audience. The
illustrations by Christine Pym are superb - they are full of fun
and humour and a key part of this lovely book as they are
integrated perfectly with the text.
*Parents in Touch*
Best-loved nonsense songs such as The Owl and the Pussy-Cat, The
Jumblies, The Dong with the Luminous Nose and many more are
included in this highly attractive volume... A good selection of
Edward Lear’s Limericks, also richly illustrated, are included too
making the whole book a wonderful introduction to classic
works.

Packed with colourful illustrations.
*Newbury Weekly News*
Nonsense alphabets, limerics and quirky botanical imaginings are
gathered together with famous poems in the stunningly and
imaginatively illustrated Usborne Illustrated Originals Edward
Lear’s Book of Nonsense. Christine Pym’s illustrations are bright
and whimsical and they accompany the text brilliantly.
