The A-Z of Limericks: 501 Personalized Rhymes
ISBN: 9781609760748 / Angielski / Miękka / 148 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

While the 501 jest-filled rhymes in this book are untitled, each contains a person's first name and has its own subject. The rhymes are constructed in a traditional AABBA rhyme scheme, with the B lines being shorter than the...
