Edited by Angus Davidson and Philip Hofer, the book features a curated selection of materials preserved by the Houghton Library of Harvard University, including the titular rhyme sequence, the poetic work The Scroobious Pip, and various limericks. By unveiling these long-hidden gems, the editors provide an essential addition to Lear's literary canon, offering fans and scholars alike a fresh perspective on his whimsical and imaginative creative output. The volume captures Lear's unique style, blending textual absurdity with characteristic drawings to present a varied and charming assemblage of nonsense art that remained unpublished for over sixty-five years following his death.",{"@graph":14,"@context":73},[15,34,56],{"@type":16,"itemListElement":17},"BreadcrumbList",[18,23,27,31],{"item":19,"name":20,"@type":21,"position":22},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",1,{"item":24,"name":25,"@type":21,"position":26},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":28,"name":29,"@type":21,"position":30},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/literature/","Literature",3,{"item":32,"name":10,"@type":21,"position":33},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/teapots-and-quails-and-other-new-nonsenses/440651/",4,{"url":32,"name":10,"@type":35,"image":36,"author":41,"headline":10,"publisher":44,"fileFormat":47,"inLanguage":8,"description":12,"dateModified":48,"datePublished":49,"encodingFormat":47,"isAccessibleForFree":50,"interactionStatistic":51},"DigitalDocument",{"url":37,"@type":38,"width":39,"height":40},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/teapots-and-quails-and-other-new-nonsenses/440651.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":42,"@type":43},"Himbo","Person",{"url":19,"name":45,"@type":46},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-29","2026-09-29",true,{"@type":52,"interactionType":53,"userInteractionCount":55},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":54},"ViewAction",11,{"@type":57,"mainEntity":58},"FAQPage",[59,65,69],{"name":60,"@type":61,"acceptedAnswer":62},"What
