We have learnt about spoonerisms, idioms, metaphors, similes, personification, alliteration, imagery (descriptive writing), onomatopoeia and of course rhymes! Say that ten times fast and you'll also be using a another technique: tongue twisters.

Lewis Carroll's The Walrus and the Carpenter
Edward Leer's The Owl and the Pussycat
