What do you get when you cross a limerick and a tongue-twister? A brand-new form of verse called a "twimerick!" And this book of delightfully illustrated and totally zany twimericks is like a party for your mouth! For everyone who loves playing with language and can't resist a witty poem or turn of phrase, here is a little gem of a book guaranteed to tickle your funny bone. Just try reading one of these twimericks out loud in front of a roomful of friends and you are guaranteed to laugh-and have everyone else laughing with you! Twimericks, The Book of Tongue-Twisting Limericks, which features Lou's snappy illustrations and outrageously absurd, difficult-to-read-aloud twimericks (tongue twisters in the form of limericks), is a real plow-creaser-whoops, that's crowd-pleaser! Here's just one example: Is He Izzy, Ozzy? He's Izzy, isn't he, Ozzy? Izzy oddly says he is,No, I'm Ozzy, Ozzy Iddley, the name of Izzy Oddley's his,Izzy's Ozzy and vice verse-a,And to make the matter worse-a,Tis the answer in an Izzy Oddley -Ozzy Iddley quiz. As much fun at a party (cocktails add a whole new twist!) as in a classroom (what a great way to teach poetry!), Twimericks is infectious fun for everyone, of any age.
