A Book of Nonsense Verse

By Wallace Tripp
A horse tied to a person is only the beginning of the nonsense here. This collection of playful verse gathers old favorites and odd little poems where logic slips, words wobble, and the funniest lines often arrive with a completely straight face. Wallace Tripp’s illustrations add another layer of comedy, turning short rhymes into busy scenes full of strange characters, expressive animals, and unexpected details waiting to be spotted. For readers ages 6 to 12, A Great Big Ugly Man Came Up and Tied His Horse to Me is a joyful book for reading aloud, sharing with someone who enjoys absurd humor, or dipping into one poem at a time. It is especially suited to children who like language that sounds silly, clever, and wonderfully out of control.
