Ok, this book can be very funny, but adults exercise caution before you hand this over to a 'young adult'. For me, some content was not quite appropriate. While my husband and I laughed, we thought, hm.. not sure that I want my kid reading that. Other stuff is quite appropriate for a young adult and extremely funny.

This is a compendium of somewhat ribald poems and parts of poems, from our lost and misspent youth of 40+ years ago. There isn't much commentary, which might be OK, but it is interesting that as an elementary school teacher I hear versions of these that I heard 40 years ago, and apparently they have been passed on without any written help, or (I would hope) no help from any adults.
