Description

The objective of this book is to provide an appreciation of poetry and English, using lots of humour, fun and adventure, to kids from 5 to 99 years of age. How exactly? Through the intriguing, yet neglected, limerick - a refreshing alternative to many available general poetry books. You'll also find a kid-friendly introduction explaining what a limerick is and an optional section at the end on how to write your very own ... It should appeal to kids who love loads of colourful, exciting and creative illustrations.

Advance Praise

Na: We had so much fun reading "Sneezing Aliens" out loud. The best way to read a limerick we decided:) We loved the "Here Kitty" and "Dogs Life" being the pet lovers that we are. I'm going to bring it to read to my after school kids, they are going to definitely get lots of laughs from it. Thank you so much for our copy.

Ba: Very professional. Well done.

Re: Sandy's Aunt LOVED your book! ... But seriously, she is a "book" person and I just learned today that her children (son and daughter-in-law) are Harvard Professors of Lit.!! (and write poetry! - more another time on that one...) Anyway she thought the colors were wonderful, the book so natural and refreshing, appealing, etc.! (can't remember exactly, but she used good words!!)

Ma:I had Morrey read your recently published book and I want to tell you how much we both loved it. Wish there was one that was particularly great but I can't. They all brought a smile to our faces and Morrey was caught laughing out loud. Thanks for them all
