AlbakiReads Editorial A playful anthology of nonsense verse
A playful anthology of nonsense verse
Edited by John Foster, Ridiculous Rhymes gathers new and previously published nonsense poems in a compact children’s poetry collection. The selection includes work by Spike Milligan, Michael Rosen, Pam Ayres, Jez Alborough, and Foster, bringing together multiple comic voices rather than centering on a single poet. Humorous line illustrations appear throughout, accompanying poems built around absurd situations, wordplay, and everyday subjects viewed from a deliberately silly angle. With 89 pages of varied verse, the book offers a browseable format for reading individual poems aloud or dipping into a few at a time.
Good fit for readers who enjoy
- Children ages 9–12 exploring humorous poetry
- Families and classrooms seeking poems for reading aloud
- Fans of nonsense verse and comic wordplay

The books use both new and existing material with humorous line illustrations thorughout. Well-known poets are included such as Spike Milligan, Michael Rosen, Pam Ayers, Jez Alborough and John Foster himself.
