This volume gathers playful verse for unhurried hours - meant for children, and for grown-ups who still keep a child's grin close at hand - from the lively pen of Dr. Sarah Condor-Fisher, one of America's most prolific makers of rhyme. The poems are chiefly cast in the limerick's jaunty measure, sometimes obedient to the classic pattern, sometimes delightfully straying beyond it; yet, they always return to music, wit, and punch. Here, beasts and birds rub shoulders with ordinary folk and odd characters; small follies are gently teased, and the world is kept in good cheer, one bright stanza at a time.
