Product Description

It was missing a piece.
And it was not happy.
So it set off in search
of its missing piece.
And as it rolled
it sang this song -Oh I'm lookin' for my missin' piece
I'm lookin' for my missin' piece
Hi-dee-ho, here I go,
Lookin' for my missin' piece.

What it finds on its search for the missing piece is simply and touchingly told in this fable that gently probes the nature of quest and fulfillment.

Great book for young and old., 2008-08-20
My son brought this book home from the school library and the message stuck in my head for a long time. It can cheer you up and remind you to be happy with what you have!
Excellent gift to share!

Even young children get it, 2007-09-28
Both my 5 year old and my three year old love this book. It relates to all three of us at levels we all can understand. I always enjoyed reading this story, but it was not until I had children and began reading to them, did I realize the signaifcance and poinancy of what was realy going on. Not to look for affirmation or completion, but you are ok just as you are. I fell in love with this book all over again.

Possibly the best book ever written, 2007-09-10
OK, there may be some stiff competetion in terms of "the best book ever written" -but this is one of my favorite books ever written. For some reason it's lesser known than many of the other Shel Silverstein poem books (may adults have never heard of it), but IMHO this one is a MUST READ. Although I like some of the poem books, quite honestly, they aren't my favorite. If you judge this book by them, then you may miss this wonderful story. I don't think that I've read this and haven't been able to get a smile out of any kid or any adult.
