    A Classic!

    Not only delightful, it is a lesson in relativity, with its whimsical points of view and drawings. It makes us laugh! My 5 year old grandson loves to play with rhymes, and this is fertile ground for exploration.

    Limited description

    Book arrived with no cover. I was planning in gifting the book. Disappointed. Though the description noted not the picture of the actual book I feel slightly mislead. Description could Gabe notes no cover or the possibility of no cover.

  • "Where the Sidewalk Ends" carries you back to childhood.

    Excellent condition... I would have judged it "very" good. Poems are entertaining to read to children and increase their listening vocabulary. Black and white drawings go along with the verbal entertainment. Even adults get a chuckle out of this book.

  • Fun book for young children

    This was my older son's favorite book when he was in elementary school. He borrowed & renewed it if from the school library so often I bought the book so he'd have his own copy. Now that he has a son I wanted to give him the book his daddy loved so much. Shel Sillverstein has passed away but he left a wonderful legacy of amusing, clever poems and drawings for kids (and their parents) to enjoy.

  • Beloved book!

    This poetry book is a classic and will be loved by young readers for a long long time. It's still one of my favorite books to read. It's easy to read a poem or two to my first grader.

  • Beloved book I read to all my children

    Delighted to find this copy. Sent it to my grown daughter as a gift. My children still speak of the fun poetry in this book. My copy is ragged and worn. I would not part with it. Hence, I sent this one on.
