Toes in My Nose<br />

And Other Poems<br />

Sheree Fitch<br />

Art by Sydney Smith<br />

Paperback edition of Sheree Fitch classic illustrated by<br />

Governor General’s Award-winning Illustrator Sydney Smith<br />

Silly, funny, and outrageous, Toes in My Nose is the book that launched Sheree<br />

Fitch’s career as Canada’s premier nonsense poet. From Popcorn Pete and Mabel<br />

Murple to Zelba Zinnamon, these are some of the best-loved poems and<br />

characters in Canadian children’s literature.<br />

The twenty-fifth-anniversary edition is now available in paperback, with Sydney<br />

Smith hilariously portraying a neighbourhood of kids flying to the moon, playing<br />

banjo with orangutans, and bathing with submarines. Toes in My Nose will introduce<br />

a whole new generation to Sheree Fitch’s magnificent feat of imagination.<br />

Sheree Fitch’s first two books, Toes in My Nose (1987) and Sleeping<br />

Dragons All Around (1989), launched her career as a poet, rhymster, and a<br />

“kind of Canadian female Dr. Seuss.”<br />
