Where the Sidewalk Ends (book)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Where the Sidewalk Ends (1974) is a book of children's poetry written and illustrated by Shel Silverstein. The book's poems address many common childhood concerns, as well as presenting purely fanciful stories.
In 2004, a special 30th Anniversary Edition was published, which included 12 new poems.
The book has been banned or removed from some school libraries due to the rebellious and somewhat terrifying nature of some of the poems, and some risque illustrations.
