From the Artist:
When I was in elementary school, my older sister brought home a book
Titled ‘Where the Sidewalk Ends‘. I fell in love with that book; the
quirky poems, the silly pictures, they were laugh out loud and
insightful. Mr. Silverstein’s visage was like a character in one of his
books and I used it in my contribution. This piece is a tribute to a
man’s body of work I admire.

Hi Kimberley,
Welcome to the Challenge and thank you for your submission. Your illustration of the story is wonderful and I’m sure would make Mr. Silverstein proud.

I am sure he would love it too! Welcome to the group, glad you are here. You really captured the essence of the book very well. Reminds me a little of Richard Scary too.
