MY THOUGHTS:  I discovered the world of Shel Silverstein while I was in school.  I'm not much for poetry, but Shel Silverstein makes poetry fun.  The first book of poetry I read from this author was Where The Sidewalk Ends.  Love this book!  I loved it so much I bought a copy of my own.  I browse through the book a lot.  As for Runny Babbit, it's a little different, but I still like it.  I also love all the little drawings that in the book.  If you haven't read Shel Silverstein, do so, you'll love it too.  I give this book 5.....





This book is also for my Birthday Month Reading Challenge.
