Book Report: Good Intentions by Ogden Nash (1942?)
This book collects some of Nash's work in an around the World War II era, complete with mocking tones about Mussolini and Germany. However, it includes some gems of zingers and whatnot and amusing enough poetry to read aloud to a couple of children who don't get the point but like to chant when they hear words they recognize.
I liked the book, and I hope some day I get to use "Who was Ogden Nash?" as a Jeopardy! question.

To say Noggle, one first must be able to say the "Nah."
"I will."

"Some wanker."

"Brian J. Noggle apparently forgot that the proper design for a tin foil beanie calls for the shiny side out."
