Lafcadio, the Lion Who Shot Back

Shel Silverstein's first children's book, Lafcadio, the Lion Who Shot Back—a whimsical tale of self-discovery and marshmallows—is turning fifty with a return to a vintage full-color cover.

Is a famous, successful, and admired lion a happy lion? Or is he a lion at all? Written and drawn with wit and gusto, Shel Silverstein's modern fable speaks not only to children but to us all!

Shel Silverstein (Who Wrote That?)Shel Silverstein (Who Wrote That?)

Shel Silverstein was a songwriter, playwright, and cartoonist, but he is best known for his poetry and books for children, including "The Giving Tree" and "A Light in the Attic". Always thought-provoking and sometimes controversial, Silverstein's writing was accompanied by his distinctive art, making his books memorable and appealing to children and adults alike. But Silverstein didn't start out as a children's book writer. He pursued many other avenues first, all the while living a fascinating and unusual lifestyle.
