Edward Lear books of Nonsence have one wonderful stuff too-- all of his many {clean} limricks-Like:
There was an old man with a beard
Who said "It is just as I feared,
Two owl, a hen,
Three larks and wren,
Have all made their nests in my beard!"

He also has a wonderful collection of Flora, all with amazing Latin names...and illistrations of the flora.
and his poems-- Like the Owl and the Pussycat.

All very funny on several levels, so children and parents can enjoy.
