Shel Silverstein

Shel Silverstein shook the staid world of
children's poetry in 1974 with the publication
of this collection, and things haven't been the
same since. More than four and a half million
copies of Where the Sidewalk Ends have
been sold, making it the best selling children's
poetry book ever. With this Silverstein reveals
his genius for reaching kids with silly words and
simple pen-and-ink drawings.

"Silverstein's book . . . deserves to be placed
along-side Mother Goose. Popular with adults and youngsters
alike, the poetry encompasses satires, limericks, ballads, questions,
tall stories, ridiculous situations, and a deft way with language."
