A vibrant, fantastical picture storybook, detailing The Jumblies and their ocean adventure in a sieve - join the intrepid blue and green adventurers as they set sail! A classic nonsense tale by Edward Lear.

Edward Lear (1812 - 1888) was an English writer of nonsense, the most famous piece of which is The Owl and the Pussycat. He is also credited with popularizing the limerick, though there was some speculation as to whether his patron, the Earl of Derby, simply used Lear as a pseudonym for his own writings. Lear was also a successful illustrator and even spent some time tutoring Queen Victoria in drawing before his improper behaviour had him thrown out of court.

'One Hundred Nonsense Pictures and Rhymes' is a delightful collection of Edward Lear's nonsense limericks and illustrations between 1846 and 1877. This edition has been specifically formatted and the 100 illustrations optimised for digital reading devices.
