With humorous and wise poems and paintings, this book shows unparalleled imagination: chickens unwilling to be born from eggs because of the polluted world, why unicorns dont exist, and a recipe for Hippo sandes. There are also some childrens simplest es: auction their crying little sister at a low price, wipe off the annoying Magic Eraser, turn on a lamp by the bed for fear of darkness... Anything that children want and adults have forgotten can be found in this book.

Shel Silverstein is a poet, illustrator, playwright, composer, country singer and a great picture book writer in the 20th century. "He was walking on the sidewalk in New York with an old mail bag stuffed with music scores. He wore worn cowboy boots and jeans that had been washed many times..." such a burly, slovenly bald man, who had never learned painting, was shocked and moved by his picture book. In 1963, once the picture book a lion that can shoot was published, it immediately caused a great sensation and won numerous praise. Subsequently, the tree of love was grandly published, became popular rapidly, and sold more than 5.5 million copies, which affected readers from generation to generation, became an eternal model in the picture book world, and also established the noble status of Shelveys great picture book writer. Since then, works such as the light in the attic, the lost corner, the lost corner meets the great perfection, the end of the sidewalk and a fall upward have been published one after another. The faint philosophical sentences and simple illustrations in the book, especially the unique and rare innocence, have made the old and children, blacks and whites, rich and poor become his readers. As the media reported, "where there is a bookstore, there must be sheres works.
