Shel Silverstein also wrote the first poem I ever memorized, and the only one I can recite still.

*Listen to the Musn’ts*

Listen to Mustn'ts, child,
listen to the Don'ts.
Listen to the Shouldn'ts, the Impossibles, the Won'ts.
Listen to the Never Haves, then listen close to me.
      Anything can happen, child, Anything can be

Nearly every book I read as a child influenced me. I’ve kept this list to books I read aged 16 and up, this one carried on from childhood into adulthood as well. *Where the Sidewalk Ends* by Shel Silverstein

Entry #16 of the #Bookstodon challenge: Choose 20 books that greatly influenced you. One book per day, for 20 days. *No explanations, no reviews, just covers.

I didn’t have the Democratic Party self-destructing and giving Trump the next election on my bingo card.

Oh wait…nevermind, yes…

Yeah, it’s the center piece. It’s been there the whole time.
