The family of the beloved poet, Shel Silverstein, has released a new book, “Every Thing On It,” which includes 145 poems written by Silverstein that were not included in his earlier books. The family met once a month for about a year to work on the book, ensuring that every detail was just as Silverstein would have liked. The editor of the collection, Toni Markiet, says,”These are his poems, this is his art. We simply chose them out of the ones that had not had a chance to be published yet.”
