Review

This is a 2017 release of the classic poem by Edward Lear originally published in 1871. In this charming tale the mismatched owl and pussy sail off in their pea green boat to the land where the bong trees grow to dance by the light of the moon, the moon, the moon...

A lovely read aloud with cheerful watercolored illustrations. Young and old alike will want to read this again and again.

Overall Book Score: very good
