A friend once told me that he did some more "adult" work, but that it was better to just not look into that and enjoy the poetry and illustrations for kids. <br /><br />Similarly, I was a little surprised by some of the work that Dr. Suess did!Molliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05919005875185335727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7500979.post-42128739606052539672012-09-26T08:11:55.780-05:002012-09-26T08:11:55.780-05:00I always liked Shel Silverstein, too.
