Regis Auffray's second collection of limericks will delight you, elicit a smile, and perhaps even make your day brighter. While being fictional, the limericks in this book were inspired by real people, experiences and events. As you immerse yourself in its pages, you might just find a limerick or two about someone you know or perhaps even about you.

Isabelle is a belle from Carmel,

A Farmer from Moscow
There once was a farmer from Moscow,
Who had a most peculiar cow;
It could speak English,

A Would-Be Rapper
There once was a would-be rapper,
Who slipped on a candy wrapper;
He went head over heels,
Did a few cartwheels,
And wound up head first in the crapper.
