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.

  • A lovely book of unusual poems

    This writer is very creative so this book isn't for everyone and not what most children would expect. If your child is super-sensitive you may need to choose which ones to read to him or her. The author was American so some words may need an explanation for English children. Children should be a bright 5 or older. Having said that my child found the poems and illustrations delightful and so did I.
