    Where the Sidewalk Ends: Poems and Drawings by Shel Silverstein (KTIversen1)
    KTIversen1: The poems in The Bridge Across The River can be compared to the more light-hearted children's poem in Where the Sidewalk Ends. However, they are more suitable for younger children but lack illustrations.

Epigraph
Dedication
First words
Beyond forever, and past the ridge
Quotations
Wiggles the wallaby stopped to steal bread
While fleeing the scene of her crime.
She’d stolen the crown right off the queen’s head,
And a wristwatch that didn’t keep time.

Across all of Sydney through Brisbane and Perth,
The authorities chased Wiggles down.
But she’d eaten the bread, and she’d lost the old watch,
Then she’d pawned the good queen’s precious crown.
