"It was a little girl in Toronto who started it all by demanding a poem at bed-time. Not an unreasonable request -- and with a father who wrote poems the problem should have been a simple one. Dennis Lee knew lots of nursery rhymes, but none of them seemed just right for a small Canadian about to go off to sleep. So he began writing poems especially for the occasion... 'These are not coffee-table poems,' says Dennis Lee, 'they're meant to be used. Children's poems pass around in weird and wonderful versions, and the changes always make sense -- to the tongue and ear, if not necessarily to the mind. If your child inadvertently rewrites some of these poems, please take his version more seriously than mine.' Frank Newfeld's drawings will excite the imagination of any child. They are as playful and vibrant as the poems and spring from a lively sense of children's vision. A hapier combination of talents could not have been found." Alligator Pie - Dennis Lee Published 1984, The Macmillan Company of Canada/ Hardcover. Approx. 7.5x10.5in. 64pp. Nicholas Knock and Other People - Dennis Lee Published 1974, The Macmillan Company of Canada/ Hardcover. Approx. 7.5x10.5in. 64pp. Both are in good vintage condition and should easily survive another generation or two of children enjoying them.
