NONSENSE!!

trying to make a SENSE out of this book is NONSENSE !!!
:) at first, I tried, but that definitely doesn't make a sense no matter how much I tried to!
I really enjoyed the nonsense in this book thought its really nonsense!

Limericks as an art form - but without the art ie no illustrations in the ereader copy I have. Rather disappointing (due to the formatting especially), but probably very funny when they were written.

Eek, there are too many limericks in this book, and frankly they aren't all that good!

According to the introduction from an anthology of Limericks the subject matter of these poems is mostly risque. The clean limerick was developed as a parlor game. Those are the kinds of rhymes found in this collection.
