Product Description


Including 12 New Poems!

If you are a dreamer, come in,
If you are a dreamer,
A wisher, a liar,
A hope-er, a pray-er,
A magic bean buyer . . .

Come in . . . for where the sidewalk ends, Shel Silverstein's world begins. You'll meet a boy who turns into a TV set, and a girl who eats a whale. The Unicorn and the Bloath live there, and so does Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout who will not take the garbage out. It is a place where you wash your shadow and plant diamond gardens, a place where shoes fly, sisters are auctioned off, and crocodiles go to the dentist.

Shel Silverstein's masterful collection of poems and drawings is at once outrageously funny and profound.

Product Review Summary: Where the SideWalk Ends

I think this is a wonderful book for kids and adults of all ages. The poems are fun and the illustrations are great. Read it to a little one or read it with an older child. Everyone will enjoy it.

Product Review Summary: Good for any age!

My adult daughter has wanted this book since she was in school. I decided to get it for her for Christmas. Of course she doesn't know it yet, but I know she'll love it! Thanks for getting it to me so quickly!

Product Review Summary: Have You Washed Behind Your Ears?

Here is part of only one of many funny poems. Don't miss them!

"The Dirtiest Man in the World"

Oh I'm Dirty Dan, the world's dirtiest man,
I never have taken a shower.
I can't see my shirt--it's so covered with dirt,
And my ears have enough to grow flowers.

I'm musty and dusty and patchy and scratchy
And mangy and covered with mold.
But the water is always a little too hot,
Or else it's a little too cold.

[Juvenile Poetry--or is it? Students also love to recite such poetry.]

Product Review Summary: A treasure

I can't think of a finer book to give a child or and adult who is lucky enough to be a child at heart.

Product Review Summary: Pre-teens love it

I bought this for our church library, because our copy had been checked out and read so many times it was falling apart. We don't get that much circulation in that library, so this was really something. The same kids - ages 9 to 13 - kept checking it out over and over. That can't be bad!
