About this ebook
Limericks my favorite form of verse. Every day I try to create at least one new limerick and write it down in my journal. I have decided to collect them and share them with the world.
This book contains around 100 funny, non-rude limerick peoms, suitable for children as well as adults.
This is the first book in the series and I hope you enjoy it!
