My Shel Silverstein Page

Now here he is...
The ROCKING
One and only
Greatest Children's
Poet
of all time!

Shel Silverstein is one of my favorite poets! When I feel like reading poetry out loud I always choose one of his books! They always offer me a good laugh! Some of his poems are down-right silly (and that's why they are great!) I highly reccomend buying his children's books and collections of poetry. They will soon become your valued treasures!

Stories:
The Giving Tree
The Missing Piece
The Missing Piece Meets the Big O
A Giraffe and a Half
Lafcadio, The Lion who Shot Back

Poetry:
A Light in the Attic
Falling Up
and my favorite Where the Sidewalk Ends

Take a look at these Brilliant poems from "A Light in the Attic":
