I like the concept. Limericks are difficult to compose since one has to count syllables aside from doing the rhymes and ensuring the humor. I am a frustrated and silly poet, so I am interested.

It would also be a learning experience because of the new animals I will find there. I wonder why Mr. 7 is named so. (I ask the silliest questions, too.)

I feel like a collection of just limericks definitely has the potential to get boring, so I'm glad this wasn't the case here! Sounds like a very silly, fun way to learn about animals, and I think it would be great to read to a kid. Might have to take this babysitting with me next time!
