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.

5 out of 5 stars This book is the first I ever read   May 15, 2008
I love the poems and would walk around reading them to whoever would listen. It helped me a lot, as I had learning disabilities. Shel Silversteins rhymes are delightful. I bought copies to give to friend's children...


5 out of 5 stars 4th Grade Class Top Ten Winner   May 4, 2008
Our review is for the book Where The Sidewalk Ends. The author and illustrator is Shel Silverstein. The gernre is funny poetry.
This is one of the many great poetry books Shel Silverstein wrote. If you love amusing books and you love poetry then you'll love Where The Side Walks Ends. There are humorous long poems like Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout Would Not Take The Garbage Out or short ones like warning or hat. If you want to hear more terrific poems you'll have to read it. It's a good one I promise.
Shel Silverstein wants us to laugh and have fun. Don't be up tight be able to laugh your head off. It's on our 4th grade class's top ten because the poems are hilariously funny. I'm sure you'll agree when you read it.



5 out of 5 stars Walk Down Memory Lane   May 1, 2008
Lately I have been purchasing books for my 9 month old baby. I want her to enjoy reading as much as I do, and have been collecting books that I loved growing up. As soon as I saw this book, I knew I had to have it. She is still a little young to truly appreciate it, but I am having a blast reading the poems that I enjoyed as I child. Definitely a "must have" for everyone.


5 out of 5 stars Superb!   April 20, 2008
My five year old cannot get enough of Shel Silverstein. He reads 10 or more poems out loud every day and has memorized several of them. This is our favorite collection of poems. They are funny, clever, imaginative. Even the illustrations are excellent. You can read them and then read them over and over again. The extra poems in the back are a great addition. Highly recommended.


5 out of 5 stars Where the Sidewalk Ends   April 18, 2008
I thought it was a great book, with hilarious poems, sad poems, and strange poems. I think Shel Silverstein is a great and creative writer. I especially liked the funny poetry. I was always anxious to read the next poem. The book was very easy to read because the language was simple and easy to understand, and the length of the poems were short and to the point. I would recommend this book to anyone who loves to see humor in a potpourri of subjects. It was a fantastic book.
