Brilliant rhythms

I only knew a couple of rhythms so thought I'd have a listen, I found them really lovely nonsense, but then again! I'm really pleased with my purchase.

Edward Lear & Alan Bennett - Match made in heaven!

This book of Nonsense Rhymes is perfectly matched with Alan Bennett's reading.

Perfect for adults and children alike.

Boring

The narration was very dull and followed a repetitive rhyme.
I could hardly follow any of the stories included.

A wonderful anthology.

Any additional comments?

As an adult, I wasn't sure whether I would still enjoy Lear, but it was a freebie so I had nothing to lose. It certainly didn't disappoint and has been listened to multiple times as I rekindle memories of the well loved verse of my childhood. My boomerang sons also enjoyed listening with me and one has since bought the book. Overall suitable for all ages.
