Shel Silverstein is the Best for reading to your children
I give this book, A Light in the Attic, Everything on It and others to all my cousins and friends when they have children. My 16 year old daughter would not go to sleep when she was younger. I read to her A-LOT! I tried everything. I tried boring her to sleep by reading from my old engineering textbooks. Shel Silverstein is the most fun to read to a child. Particularly in that 18mo - 7yrs range, they love the silliness. Silly poems & silly drawings. I am a big fan of his books.

Classic!!
Such a classic. I read Shel Silverstein as a kid in the 90s. Now I’m reading to my son. Books are so silly and fun to read.

Passing Shel onto the next generation!
Bought this for my 5 year old son for Christmas. He always wants me to read him books and I was a big Shel fan growing up so I figured it would be cool to share that with him and pass the same stories down to him. And it’s really cool that this one has extra poems that the originals didn’t.

Excellent book very funny poems and illustrations good for children and adults who are children at heart

Le immagini e le suggestioni estetiche sono bellissime, ma forse un po' depressive, o se si preferisce "sottili" e "profonde", per un lettore bambino "medio"?

Many funny poems; kids will like the rhythmic cadences and adults will appreciate the clever verses

Mi hijo de 8 años lo devoró. Está encantado. Viene con muy buena encuadernación. Son poemas.
