Summary: Sold as new, but was used
Comment: I was very disappointed to receive this book which was sold as new, but which had a handwritten inscription in the back indicating that someone had previously owned this volume.
The book is excellent and the CD with it is wonderful. I just wish it didn't have the writing in it. Will Amazon send me another? I think they should and I shouldn't have go to the trouble and expense of returning this one. We'll see.

Summary: As wonderful as Shel's other books
Comment: A light in the attic is a great book just like Shel's other books. I have so much fun reading it to my children. This is a wonderful collection of poetry for children. This is the perfect example of what children's books should be... fun.
Another must have book for any fan of Shel Silverstein is Boetry by Beau Beaudoin. His books are often compared to Shel, Dr. Seuss and Tim Burton. What my kids love about his illustrations are they are in color.

Summary: My Favorite Poem
Comment: My favorite poem is in this book called Backward Bill. I liked this poem because it was fuinny and everything was backwards, such as he pays his boss on paydays. Most of the other poems rhyme and most of them were entertaining. (A.C.B. age 9)

Summary: A MUST-HAVE!
Comment: Every child should experience the genius of Shel Silverstein. His poems "speak" to children, and adults alike. To this day, this is one of our now 18-year-old son's favorite books!


Editorial Reviews:

Last night while I lay thinking here
Some Whatifs crawled inside my ear
And pranced and partied all night long
And sang their same old Whatif song:

Whatif I flunk that test?
Whatif green hair grows on my chest?
Whatif nobody likes me?
Whatif a bolt of lightning strikes me?...

To celebrate its 20th anniversary, Shel Silverstein's A Light in the Attic is now available in a special edition containing the classic hardcover book and a CD of highlights from his Grammy Award-winning album.

Here in the attic of Shel Silverstein you will find Backward Bill, Sour Face Ann, the Meehoo with an Exactlywatt, and the Polar Bear in the Frigidaire. You will talk with Broiled Face, and find out what happens when Somebody steals your knees, you get caught by the Quick-Digesting Gink, a Mountain snores, and They Put a Brassiere on the Camel.

From the creator of the beloved poetry collections Where the Sidewalk Ends and Falling Up, here is another wondrous book of poems and drawings.
