Review
Praise for Dr. Seuss:
“[Dr. Seuss] has…instilled a lifelong love of books, learning and reading [in children]” The Telegraph
“Dr. Seuss ignites a child’s imagination with his mischievous characters and zany verses” The Express
“The magic of Dr. Seuss, with his hilarious rhymes, belongs on the family bookshelf” Sunday Times Magazine
“The author… has filled many a childhood with unforgettable characters, stunning illustrations, and of course, glorious rhyme” The Guardian
Praise for And To Think That I Saw it On Mulberry Street:
“The cleverest book I have met with for many years. The swing and merriment of the pictures and the natural truthful simplicity of the untruthfulness.”
Beatrix Potter, author of The Tale of Peter Rabbit
About the Author
Theodor Seuss Geisel – better known to millions of his fans as Dr. Seuss – was born the son of a park superintendent in Springfield, Massachusetts, in 1904. After studying at Dartmouth College, New Hampshire, and later at Oxford University in England, he became a magazine humorist and cartoonist, and an advertising man. He soon turned his many talents to writing children’s books, and his first book – And To Think That I Saw It On Mulberry Street – was published in 1937. His greatest claim to fame was the one and only The Cat in the Hat, published in 1957, the first of a hugely successful range of early learning books known as Beginner Books.

Sent away unseen for my grandson, but my son loved it. He will “drip feed” the books to his 3 year old.

it has been beautifully designed to be read out aloud
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 29 June 2017Verified Purchase
I never read these as a kid. Now I'm a dad, and I needed some English-language books to read to my son (his native language is Dutch).
At first he didn't want to read The Cat In The Hat - it didn't have a monster, a tiger or a pooping dinosaur on the cover.
Thankfully papa insisted. My lad was immediately transfixed. The story has a rhythm, it has been beautifully designed to be read out aloud. It feels like it was written using a small set of fairly short words; these are then smartly combined to keep text fresh and build the rhythm.
That was about a week ago; now my son is constantly asking papa to read the Cat Hat book. What more can I say? It's a masterpiece.

Rhyming Mischievous Cat
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 29 December 2020Verified Purchase
This story really kept my 4 years old attention... a rhyming story about a cat who visits a pair of children who have nothing to do a rainy day and the mischief he gets up to.
Also teaches them to tidy up after themselves which my son noticed so always a positive!
We purchased this after being a fan of the grinch who stole Christmas... another good book in the series to try.

Beautiful book, great to read aloud
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 5 May 2020Verified Purchase
Chosen for a virtual lockdown read from us grandparents to 2 year old grand daughter. It’s quite a long story; 15 minutes to read but she kept attention throughout, Despite her not knowing the story previously.
Poetic, fun to read, and a naughty cat story that puts everything right before mum comes home. A great bedtime reading choice.
