Publisher Description: A collection of wonderfully hilarious, ridiculous rhymes put together by a master compiler, well known for his collections with OUP. John Foster is a poet in his own right and is highly-regarded in both the trade and in schools for his brilliant collections. LOOPY LIMERICKS is the first of 4 sparkling new collections of nonsense poems which mark the return of Collins Chidlren's Books to poetry publishing. John Foster is a well-known poet, teacher, and his book WHAM BAN ORANGUTAN is hugely popular (OUP), and the title of this was taken from his own poem. He is highly-regarded both in the trade and in schools. The books use both new and existing material with humorous line illustrations throughout. |
