Cloud Cuckoo Land is a book of poems by Bernard Lodge. Each poem is about the imaginary experiences of commonly know places such as space, the mouth, and imaginary places such as ice cream land and cloud cuckoo land.

This is a great book to introduce children to poety. Every poem is rhythmic and rhyming, and every poem is fun an imaginative.

The pictures in the book are very colorful and creative. I think they make the imagination of the author come to life and make the story complete.

I would read these poems to children K-2

I have this book over 500 times to my kiddos and it never gets old for them. Notice I wrote it never gets old for THEM. In all seriousness, it is cute.

A little like Gulliver's Travels, even with a map at the end.
