Shel Sliverstein we thank you.

This is the hardest review I have ever done because it's a poem book. Everything on it by Shel Silverstein is a very amazing imaginative book
because there really isn't a main character I'll be talking about the growth of Mr. Silverstein. One of his first poem books was a book named Don't Bump the Glump. This book lead to a path way of completely amazing poem books like this one was. many people started to realize that this guy was a really good poet. His rhymes although cooky and childish were some of the best things I've ever had the pleasure of reading.

The next book he wrote (that I have) was a huge book called A Light in the Attic. To this day it's his most well known book. It had more hilarious poems than ever before and It had some of the best poems I've ever read contained inside. Most people have read this book and if you've never read it, just do it okay, for the people of the universe .

His writing only got better and he proved that when he wrote, Where the Sidewalk Ends. This book was a master piece and most likely one of the best books I've ever read. It provided his hilarious drawings, poems, and made up foods and animals. Take for example his poem "How to Make a Hippo sandwich". I still read that poem when ever I read that book. He also included an even better format for poems to and made many a short stanza poem.

In my opinion though his last book Everything on it. Was his best book. It had timeless stories and you could waste days reading it repeatedly. Mr. Silverstien topped himself with this book. Reading a book like this is like a child reading a Doctor Suess book. When you think of Shel Silverstein you think of a great man. I admit he looks like a pirate, but I rate everything he's ever written a 10/10, this time I'm not going to let you comment about what you think he's rated. 10/10 that's final.
