    Shipping took a little longer than it initially said but the book still arrived just as described in fantastic condition. I wasn't a huge fan of the packaging though, as it was just wrapped in a simple thin plastic sleeve with zero cushion or padding and I've had books completely destroyed because there was nothing to protect them so if possible I'd like to see the seller provide a safer package when shipping books. But thankfully mine wasn't damaged in transit!

    Great for new readers.

    Clever poems that are relatively quick to read and words are appropriate for new readers. Kids feel a sense of accomplishment when they get the humor and can read many poems in a sitting. Unlike with a chapter book which can sometimes be intimidating or just take too long.

    light in the attic

    I was upset when I got this. I did not realize it did not have the original cover on it. That was part of the charm. WHile it might have been my oversight by reading carefully (I had no idea what no dust meant) I was not pleased with the condition of this book. The book is the book. Content is great.

    Compelling to the young and we who are older!

    My third graders always love these, and other Shel Silverstein works! Now, I have this to send to my French granddaughters who will love them too!

    Wonderful

    Love the ryming and the cleaness of the book. My favorite author since the Giving Tree. The Author was not a role model but his books are wonderful.
