In Gelett Burgess’s clever series of children’s tales set in the fictional city of Ligg, you’ll meet such interesting inhabitants as "The Pert Fire Engine," "The Lazy Lamp Post," "The Very Grand Piano" and "The House Who Walked in Her Sleep." True to the nonsense genre it belongs to, this book is full of instructional wordplay. Burgess’s focus on the etymology of words and his characteristic intelligent sense of humor will surely ignite your child’s imagination and bring a smile to your face too.
