The Stripy Bird. The Scroobius Bird. The Obsequious Ornamental Ostrich who wore boots to keep his feet quite dry. Of all the animals that sprang from the idiosyncratic imagination of Edward Lear, few feature as frequently as birds, which appear throughout his work, from the flamboyant flock in the Nonsense Alphabet to the quirky avian characters of his limericks, stories, and songs. Lear drew himself as a bird on numerous occasions. In a popular selfportraitlater reproduced on a postage stampLear even represented himself as a portly, bespectacled bird.Edward Lears Nonsense Birds collects more than sixty of Lears bird illustrations from across his entire body of work. Often, the birds have hilariously human characteristics. There is, for instance, a GoodNatured Grey Gull, a Hasty Hen, and a Querulous Quail. The Judicious Jay is chiefly concerned with good grooming. The Vicious Vulture, meanwhile, turns out to be a wordsmith whose verses on vellum celebrate veal. Each bird is endowed with a unique personality, while collectively they form a wonderfully amusing flock. Also included are a series of twentyfour handcolored illustrations.Bright and beautifully illustrated, this book will make a perfect gift for children of all ages and will also be welcomed by all who love Lears work or are interested in learning more about his fascination with birds.
