Summary: Best Children's Book of Poems
Review: Shel Silverstein has made one of the best book of poems I have ever read. The poems are light and cute and some have morals to them. Take the poem "Sara Cynthia Sylvia Stout Would Not Take The Garbage Out". This proves to kids that if you don't take the garbage out, it will just keep piling and piling up all the way to the ceiling. My favorite poem is "The Dirtiest Man In The World". I think it is so funny, but in a sick sort of way. There are lots of other poems that are funny, and I would recommend this book to any parent. I know their kids would enjoy them and will keep re-reading the book until they have the poems memorized. Some are short, some are long. The illustrations are cute just as the poems are.

Summary: the best book ever
Review: Silverstein's poems may not be beautiful or thought-provoking. In fact, they are a bit on the strange side. I have first gotten this book in first grade, and I have read it many times. A great poem that I would recommend is 'The Crocodile and the Dentist' (I believe that is the correct title of it).If you're a parent, take time to read this with your children. Both of you will enjoy the creative and funny poems by Shel Silverstein.
