The owl and the Pussy-Cat

Perhaps Edward Lear’s best-loved poem—certainly his most famous—The Owl and the Pussy-cat was first published in the 1871 book Nonsense Songs, Stories, Botany, and Alphabets. At its heart, a simple story of love and adventure, the Owl and the Pussy-cat was written and illustrated for the daughter of John Addington Symonds, a fellow poet and literary critic. Setting sail on their pea-green boat, stocked with honey and enough funds for the journey, the two unlikely companions head straight for the land where the bongo-tree grows to marry. A delightful, nonsensical poem, full of literary charm and wit.
