"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.
“"These rhymes are perfect bite-sized nuggets of jest."”
--Brightly "A zesty collection of humorous light verse."--SLJ. "An ideal book for teachers to have handy. If you want to ungloom your day, start Where the Sidewalk Ends."--Reading Teacher.
