Wow! My oldest (and loves to read) son borrowed this from the library and read them all the way to school to us in the car! We loved them! Now my youngest (and hates to read) borrowed the book as well and spends the drive reading his favorite poems to us! We all enjoy them!

Wow! My son was in the back seat reading this book out loud, and it was so funny that I had to pull over or risk crashing! The poetry is witty, and the pictures are just as funny. Buy this book! You won't regret it!

This book is so FUNNY. My kids always get a good laugh when I read it to them.

Some of the poems in this collection are great. Who can question the brilliance of Shel Silverstein? Why then are we subjected to having a great like Shel having to share these pages with poetry that reads like it was written by children, not for children. The chief perpetrator of painful (to read) poetry is the editor himself, who should have know better than to insert his amateurish efforts into this collection. If you want to read Shel Silverstein, buy his collections. I can think of no reason to buy this pastiche of real children's poetry books.
