Where the Sidewalk Ends by Shel Silverstein

One of the three books of poetry written and illustrated by Shel Silverstein prior to his death in 1999, this volume address many of the concerns that children face in their lives. Because of this, teachers named this book to be one of their top 100 books to teach. In one poem, the reader finds out why Captain Hook should never pick his nose. In another the reader discovers what happens when a little girl doesn't take the garbage out.
