Commentary In Pursuance Of Books The Missing Piece (The Missing Piece #1)

From Shel Silverstein, the celebrated author of The Giving Tree and Where the Sidewalk Ends, comes The Missing Piece, a charming fable that gently probes the nature of quest and fulfillment.

It was missing a piece. And it was not happy. What it finds on its search for the missing piece is simply and touchingly told. This inventive and heartwarming book can be read on many levels, and Silverstein’s iconic drawings and humor are sure to delight fans of all ages.

So it set off in search
of its missing piece.
And as it rolled
it sang this song—
Oh I'm lookin' for my missin' piece
I'm lookin' for my missin' piece
Hi-dee-ho, here I go,
Lookin' for my missin' piece.

And don't miss Runny Babbit Returns, the new book from Shel Silverstein!

Weigh Up About Books The Missing Piece (The Missing Piece #1)

Gosh - I forgot how much I love this book.... I was cleaning my book shelf today and in rearranging my books started looking at my Shel Silverstein collection (I own many of his books).... I picked this one up and started reading it to my husband reminiscing how I used to read and sing this book to our kids when they were small - brought tears to my eyes.If you consider the story, it is so simple and easy, but it is full of layered meaning and wonderful lessons for both small children and adults

A brilliant, edge-of-your-seat masterpiece! Dynamic character development and a knock-your-socks-off climatic twist! I couldn't get enough of The Missing Piece when I was eight years old! However, that Shel Silverstein is a one creepy looking dude. There's a certain sort of child molester-esque look about him. His picture on the jacket sleeve alone could deter readers and nearly made me drop the rating down a half star, but I wear big boy pants now and the Silverstein booger monsters of the

It was sooooooo gooooood :D

I like how children's books have a way of teaching life lessons in an effortless manner. A great book not only for kids, but for adults as well to remind them of the importance of individualism and self-acceptance. Another great book by Shel Silverstein!

"Hi," it said."Hi," said the piece."Are you anybody else's missing piece?""Not that I know of.""Well, maybe you want to be your own piece?""I can be someone's and still be my own.""Well, maybe you don't want to be mine.""Maybe I do.""Maybe we won't fit....""Well...""Hummm?""Ummmm!"It fit!It fit perfectly!At last! At last!And away it rolledand because it was now complete,it rolled faster and faster. Faster than it had ever rolled before!So fast that it could not stop to talk to a wormor smell a

This is one of the most amazing books I have ever read in my life. Silverstein is a genius at metaphor. About a year after my separation from my husband, I was going through some boxes and I came across this book. I had written the date on it that the book club had sent it to my son. I had taped a picture of my son (at the age he was when he received the book... about 4 years old). I pushed the box aside and read the book. I realized that everything was going to be ok. I was the "piece".

I really loved it... This is one great children's story and I think it should be read to all children. This list name also says it all: "Books Adults and Teens Still Read Even Though They Are Really For Kindergarteners or First Graders"
