I loved this book, It has so many funny jokes and poetry . It was so much fun reading this book and I will tell you one or two jokes or poetry: jumpping rope This stared out as a jumpping rope you prob'ly think that I am a dope but this stared out as a jumpping rope and now I fear there is no hope but this stared out as a jumpping rope. The acrobats I'll swing by my ankles she'll cling to your knees as you hang by your nose from a high-up trapeze but just one thing please as we float through the breezes don't sneeze.

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.
