Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Giant and Other Nonsense Verse The Giant Giant in the world Whose head is up so high, He has to get down on his knees To look up in the sky. And when he feels the need of food, He wades out in the sea And fishes out a whale or two Just right to fricassee. Or if he´s near to Hindustan He gathers up a few Young elephants with jungle brush For oriental stew. And when he tires of earthly food His diet, as a rule, Consists of planets roasted well And hung outside to cool. He sends his wife to gather them; She brings them on a tray; For cream to make the planet sauce She skims the Milky Way. When Mrs. Giant cooks, the steam Floats off across the sky In clouds that drop the rain that keeps The world from getting dry.
