There's nothing better than a limerick when you want to deliver an insult, tell a tale of disaster, or describe a really weird person.

And there's no one better than John Ciardi at devising limericks that are sure to outrage, insult and entertain. Here are twoscore cheerfully preposterous verses, each one more absurd than the last, with rollicking, impudent illustrations perfectly catching their mood.

. . . . Oh yes, that trout. What did he have to be hopeful about? Read and find out.
