Product Description:
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?...
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.

I really loved this book as a kid and I'm hopeing my daughter who I'm introducing to it will feel the same way.

Your child just might be more capable of appreciating this marvelous book of poetry than you anticipate.

I sent this to my grandsons, who love it as much as their mother did. It is a wonderful book to introduce poetry to young people. They read a few every night at bedtime.

This book is a classic, the poems are wonderful. I enjoyed reading this book when i was 10, and still do. It is a book you will read over and over or just open to look for your favorite poem. Shel Silverstein is an amazingly talented and imaginative writer. I often buy this book as a present for friends kids!

Next to the giving tree, this is the second most fondly remembered book of my childhood. The giving tree was read to me much earlier and more often and the strong moral message carried a deep resonance for a long time. This collection of poems was much lighter fare and entertained me for several years. There are a lot of poems and illustrations in here to tickle your childrens imaginations and help them think creatively about words. Fantastic!
