Where the Sidewalk Ends: Poems and Drawings
Where the sidewalk ends, Shel Silversteinās world begins. Celebrate the 40th anniversary ofĀ Where the Sidewalk Ends, the classic poetry collection that is both outrageously funny and profound.

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.

In 1964, Shelās creativity continued to flourish as four more books were published in the same yearāDonāt Bump the Glump!,Ā A Giraffe and a Half,Ā Who Wants a Cheap Rhinoceros?, and the beloved classicĀ The Giving Tree.
