Enter the world of Shel Silverstein...To celebrate the 25th anniversary of Shel Silverstein's most popular book, "Where the Sidewalk Ends" is now available in a special edition containing the classic hardcover book and a CD of highlights from his Grammy Award-winning album. This is a wonderful gift and keepsake for Shel Silverstein fans, old and new.

享誉世界的艺术天才——谢尔·希尔弗斯坦，集诗人、插画家、漫画家、剧作家、作曲家、乡村歌手、吉他弹奏者等于一身。
谢尔·希尔弗斯坦的作品《爱心树》《失落的一角》《失落的一角遇见大圆满》《阁楼上的光》《一只会开枪的狮子》等在全世界广为流传，被译成了30多种文字，谢尔的精装本销量超过了1.8亿册。
在谢尔之前，儿童诗歌都是充满甜蜜和梦幻的，但是从谢尔之后开始有了分界，有了睿智。他的作品不拘泥于礼节，有一种奇异的天真。他把儿童文学从花园和教室的局限扩展到了很多令人匪夷所思却又充满惊喜的新奇领域。他的绘本作品幽默温馨，简单朴实的插图和浅显的文字中，充满淡淡的人生讽刺与生活哲学。
在美国，只要书店卖儿童书，就一定会卖谢尔的作品。他的作品不只吸引儿童，更俘获了大人们的心。
