Product Description


Millie McDeevit screamed a scream
So loud it made her eyebrows steam.
She screamed so loud
Her jawbone broke,
Her tongue caught fire,
Her nostrils smoked...

Poor Screamin' Millie is just one of the unforgettable characters in this wondrous new book of poems and drawings by the creator of Where the Sidewalk Ends and A Light in the Attic. Here you will also meet Allison Beals and her twenty-five eels; Danny O'Dare, the dancin' bear; the Human Balloon; and Headphone Harold.

So come, wander through the Nose Garden, ride the Little Hoarse, eat in the Strange Restaurant, and let the magic of Shel Silverstein open your eyes and tickle your mind.

Product Review Summary: Falling Up

Silversteins book Falling Up is a good example of veiwing the world in a different way. It makes you think. I like the poetry.

Product Review Summary: Greaat purchase

I purchased "Falling Up" for my grandaughter who is four. She loves it! Her mom says it is a frequent bedtime request.

Product Review Summary: children's classic

This is a another children's classic...appropriate from the age 6-7 years old and up. I read many of the stories to my two boys. My 7 year old now reads some of the poems himself. It was a Christmas gift and, even though it was not a toy, he still enjoyed it.
The writing is brief and witty...the illustrations are basic but appropriate for the quirky writing style.
