The Well Read Guess (Week 5)

Each week I'll post quotes from 2 picture books - a new(er) picture book and a classic picture book. Be the first to identify a quote, and earn an entry into the current monthly giveaway! Identify both the book and the author for a quote, and you'll get two entries. Identify both for both quotes, get four entries. I'll review the Brand-Spankin'-New-Book on Tuesday!

HAPPY NATIONAL POETRY MONTH!

Both quotes have been identified! Check out a review of When Green Becomes Tomatoes under REVIEWS on Tuesday, April 12 and check back Friday, April 15 for a new Well Read Guess challenge!

Quote #1 (Brand-Spankin'-New-Book): When Green Becomes Tomatoes by Julie Fogliano (selected poem "april 3")

...

and even the birds

and all their singing

sounded brokenhearted

inside of all that gray

Quote #2 (Classic Book): Where the Sidewalk Ends by Shel Silverstein (selected poem "Lester")
...
And they counted the lot and found that not
a single one was missing.
All shiny and new--here take a few
And think of Lester as you do.
In a world of apples and kisses and shoes
He wasted his wishes on wishing.
