| Publisher Description: Edward Lear's delightful nonsense verse is as fresh and fun now as it has always been. This brilliant collection from 1900 is illustrated by the peerless L. Leslie Brooke. It contains: 'The Jumblies', 'The Owl and the Pussy-Cat', 'The Broom, the Shovel, the Poker and the Tongs', 'The Duck and the Kangaroo', 'The Cummerbund', 'The Dong with a Luminous Nose', 'The New Vestments', 'Calico Pie', 'The Courtship of the Yonghy-Bonghy-B ' and 'Incidents in the Life of my Uncle Arly'. This color version has been carefully typeset to keep as close to the original as possible, faithfully reproducing the detailed black-and-white drawings and the six high-quality full-page color plates. |
