Overview
Renowned author Daniel Pinkwater and best-selling poet and artist Calef Brown team up to champion the ridiculous! These endlessly fascinating and imaginative poems are as fresh and delightful today as they were when Edward Lear wrote them more than a hundred years ago--from ""The Owl and the Pussycat"" to ""The Pobble Who Has No Toes."" This charming book proves that, sometimes, there's nothing children need more than a healthy dose of nonsense!
