Edward Lear's nonsense stories and verses, with their rich vocabulary, ringing sounds, and rolling rhythms, are exuberant escapes. Listeners will delight in the story of the Quangle Wangle's hat, the history of the people of the Lake Pipple-Popple, the life of Lear's Uncle Arly, and the playful oddity of Lear's language.
These classics, beautifully performed by Claire Bloom, will entertain children of any age.
