Shelfish

What!?!? Shel Silverstein is still alive and writing?!?!  Why was I under the impression that he had died of a drug overdose? 

Oh, wait.  I have checked my facts. 

Sadly, he has passed on (of a heart attack in 1999, not a drug overdose - Sorry, that was a bit dramatic.), and this is a collection of poetry and drawings from The Archives.

 I must obtain this book!
