2014 marks the 50th anniversary of a classic children’s book – The Giving Tree by Shel Silverstein.
The Giving Tree was published in 1964, and is his most well known book. BUT… Shel Silverstein was busy in 1964 and also had 3 other books published, which means that they all turn 50 years old this year too.
So happy birthday to the following books:
(also in French)
(Don’t Bump the Glump! is the 4th book having a birthday but, sorry- we don’t have this one in the library.)
Check out the official Shel Silverstein website for info, games, videos, printables, e-cards, and oggle at the cool illustrations and cartoons.
