LITERATURE
(3) 4-6 Poetry for Young People series. Illustrated by Laura Huliska-Beith. Beginning with a succinct, analytical introduction to the life of Lear, the volume then presents some of his best-known work, including the nonsense poems "The Owl and the Pussy-cat" and "The Jumblies," as well as a fistful of limericks that begin with the line "There was an Old Man...." Brightly colored, whimsical illustrations nicely complement the humor and energy of the poems.
