This is my favorite, I think, because there is a logic to it: all the other critters trying to figure out what the pip is. And also, because I love the sound of the noises And sang these words with a rumbling sound- And sang these words with a chirpy sound- And sung these words with a liquid sound- And sang these words with a whistly sound And they roared and sang and whistled and cried I wouldn't say I'm a huge fan of poetry in general, but I love me some light verse. Lear is a master. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

Nash completed this verse by Lear, brought fantastically into focus by the images in Burkert's generous, splendid paintings. Turn this over to young readers and ask them just what is the Pip. Or, what is he not? Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

My son loved the nonsense verse and the use of made-up words like chippetty, flippetty, and pliffity along with all the animals mentioned as well as the wonderful illustrations. Adults are equally charmed!
Nancy Ekholm Burkert illustrated the book, using a drawing by Lear for the Pip. In her forward, she also mentions that the poem was unfinished and Ogden Nash, no stranger to nonsense verse, finished the poem. His additions are clearly marked in my edition of the poem.
Lewis Carroll and “Jabberwocky” may be more famous but Lear’s Pip is just as charming a read. ( )
