A Light in the Attic Hardcover – January 1, 1981

Amazing book. My kids favourite.

I had this book when I was a kid so I was excited to see it and get it for my son. Exactly how I remembered, short stories and poems. My so loves it. The book and cover were in brand new perfect condition and delivered quickly. Cannot wait to get more.

My 3rd grade teacher used to read this book to the class in 3rd grade. I bought it for my son, who now asks me before bed "are we gonna read some book tonight". He always looks forward to it, and is just baffled by some of the poems to the point he'll melt into giggles

My children , now in their 30’s have wonderful memories of sitting with this book in the living room - now my grandson is enjoying it

"A Light in the Attic Special Edition," complete with 12 extra poems, is not merely a book but a treasure chest of whimsy and wonder from the inexhaustible imagination of Shel Silverstein. This edition is like rediscovering an old friend who still has new stories to tell.The magic of Silverstein's work lies in its ability to transcend age. These poems and illustrations are a delightful romp through the absurd, the poignant, and the profound, appealing to the child in all of us. It's like being handed a key to a secret garden where the flowers whisper jokes and the trees tell tall tales.The addition of 12 extra poems is like finding hidden tracks on your favorite album. Each new poem is a gem, shining with Silverstein's unique blend of humor, heart, and a dash of the surreal. They fit seamlessly into the tapestry of the original collection, making you wonder how you ever did without them.The illustrations, quintessentially Silverstein, are as much a part of the experience as the words. Each drawing, with its quirky lines and expressive characters, is a visual echo of the poem it accompanies. They're like dance partners, perfectly in step with each other's rhythm.TL;DR: "A Light in the Attic Special Edition" with 12 extra poems is a delightful expansion to Shel Silverstein's classic. It's a book that invites readers, young and old, to step into a world where imagination runs free and laughter is just a page-turn away.
