Exactly what was looking for! Fun and engaging stories to read with my 8 year sister. Dr. Seuss never fails me 🫡
Reviewed in the United States on February 13, 2024
The Cat in the Hat, first published in 1957 and written by Theodor Seuss Geisel (pen name "Dr. Seuss"), teaches the simple values of listening to your Mother and keeping one's living area clean and tidy.
While their Mother is away, the two children-- a boy and a girl --are visited by the Cat in the Hat, who wants none of this, desiring only to have fun and to mess up the home with his various toys, and his rambunctious little companions Thing One and Thing Two.
The book is long for a children's story at more than 60 pages, with abundant though simple text, and illustrations drawn in pen/pencil in only four colors, black, white, red, and blue. By today's standards these illustrations could be considered a bit creepy, the activity depicted wild and trippy. Even as a small child when first introduced to this book back around 1980 I thought the same, and I'm guessing it was even the same back in the time when the book was first released.
But as it is a children's book, a parent will likely be guiding their child through it, and, in this reviewer's opinion at least, what does it hurt to introduce children-- in an age-appropriate way --to the unpredictability of life, and of the importance of following the rules when others (like the Cat) encourage you not to?
The Cat in the Hat, by Dr. Seuss:
Let your children dream, and walk with them along the way, always letting them know that they are loved and appreciated-- which, I am guessing, was all that Mr. Geisel ever wanted.
