“Nonsense!” is a wonderfully delightful book of short easily memorized poems by Edward Lear. Lear (1812-1888) of England has been enjoyed by generations of fans. Valorie Fisher has illustrated Lear’s poems brilliantly.

I highly recommend, “Nonsense!” to young and old alike. I have truly become a huge fan of Edward Lear and Valorie Fisher! I especially love how Fisher has placed definitions of words no longer used in everyday English language.
