Product Description

For out-starting upstarts of all ages, here is a wonderfully wise and blessedly brief graduation speech from the one and only Dr. Seuss. In his inimitable, humorous verse and pictures, he addresses the Great Balancing Act (life itself, and the ups and downs it presents), while encouraging us to find the success that lies within us. Seuss' familiar pajama-clad hero is up to the challenge, and his odyssey is captured vividly in busy two-page spreads evoking both the good times (grinning purple elephants, floating golden castles) and the bad (deep blue wells of confusion). Oh, the Places You'll Go! is the perfect send-off for children starting out in the maze of life, be they nursery school grads or medical school achievers. Publisher: Random House. Genre: children's fiction. Spread count: 23. Published date: 1990. Dimensions: 11.5"H x 8.5"W.
