![]() ![]() ![]() There’s a ton of good figurative language use and it would be a great way to introduce students to it. I would use this book in my reading class. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and it could be read with any of the grades 3-6. The book is just filled with nonsense poems with each one more ridiculous than the other. There’s also The Broom, The Shovel, The Poker, and The Tongs which is a group of friends (I could be wrong here) that go for a ride in the park. The title may give it away but the poems in this book are exactly that Nonsense! There’s some wonderful poems in it that stand out to me including the love story of The Owl and The Pussy-Cat as they go to get married with a ring from a pig. ![]() The Jumblies and Other Nonsense Verses is a collection of verses written by Edward Lear. ![]()
