Hello, World


Hi. My name is Sloane. My blog name comes from Where the Sidewalk Ends by Shel Silverstein. This is the poem:

Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me Too

Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too,
Went for a ride in a flying shoe,
"Hooray!"
"What fun!"
"It's time we flew!"
Said Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too.


Ickle was captain, Pickle was crew,
And Tickle served coffee and mulligan stew
As higher
And higher
And higher they flew,
Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too.


Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too,
Over the sun and beyond the blue.
"Hold on!"
"Stay in!"
"I hope we do!"
Cried Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too.


Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too
Never returned to the world they knew,
And nobody
knows what's
happened to
Dear Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too.


It's my favorite poem. It has made me laugh since I was only two or three. That poem tells you a lot about me. But, here's more of my favorites.

  • Colors: blue and green
  • Animals: all of them, I really love all of them
  • Food: chicken and rice
  • Candy bar: Snickers orHershey's
  • Other candy: Mike n Ikes and Sour Skittles
  • Thing to wear: dresses and skirts
  • Place: Disney World and home
  • Picture book author: Tedd Arnold
  • Chapter book author: Ron Roy
  • Book: I love lots of them. Some of my favorites are the Bible, Hugo Cabret, Humbug Rabbit, and Olivia
  • Artist: Picasso
  • Restaurant: Macaroni Grill
  • Veggie: carrots, yummy

Have a great day. Thanks for visiting.
Love, Sloane

  9. Sloane,

    Eight years ago, your mom and I had just finished student teaching and summer school. Our teaching careers had just begun; your mom and dad came to my house one Sunday evening in October (I think it was October...) to tell me you were on the way. On this day, 8 years ago, I stood outside the hospital door listening as you took your first breath. It was amazing! Your mom and dad beamed with delight as they held you in their arms. Have a WONDERFUL Birthday!!!

    Love,
    Jennie Newberry

    I know that you are a very special young lady. Your mom speaks of you often with such love. Sounds like the two of you have fun times together.

  14. Sloane, Happy Birthday to you! I do hope that your year as an eight-year-old is the very best yet! Also, I love your new blog. This is one of my favorite of Shel Silverstein's poems. In 3rd grade, I liked it so much that I memorized it. My other favorites were Boa Constrictor and Lazy Jane.
