 a classic June 19, 2008
Although some of it is a bit dated, a lot of the verse is timeless. MInds which enjoy cryptic puzzles and humour will enjoy. The enjoyment is a fairly cerebral one - but very funny - and, unusual these days - affirmative, positive and kind.
 classic wit in wicked rhyme December 14, 2001
22 out of 23 found this review helpful
From the ditties about animals that my children like so much to the shrewdly observed tidbits of social commmentary, this book of verse is: FUN. This one is a family favourite. Nash's wonderful use/abuse of language and his sideways perspective make his pieces appealing and memorable -- bits of Nash infiltrate dinner conversation. Good for giggles. Irresistable to read aloud. I keep buying copies for friends...
Well Selected and Presented Collection October 25, 2001
13 out of 14 found this review helpful
A Generous and well presented selection of Nash's Poetry amply displaying all of the irreverent, sparkling humour, laced with those little shots of pathos that stop his work becoming shallow or merely eccentric. A good way to discover poetry and find that it can be FUN!
