A laugh-out-loud nonsense tour of Ireland.

I met a woman near Ballycanew, she was cooking Irish stew.

‘I’d love to have a bite or two!’

‘Can’t,’ she said, ‘but here’s what I’ll do: I’ll give you a slice of my granny’s shoe!’

From Ballycanew to Tandragree, there’s always something silly to see...! Take a delightfully silly trip across Ireland in this irresistible collection of nonsense rhymes from master storyteller Gabriel Rosenstock and award-winning illustrator Brian Fitzgerald.
