Did you ever fly a kite in bed? Did you ever walk with ten cats on your head? Such are the profound, philosophical queries posed in this well-loved classic by Theodor "Dr. Seuss" Geisel. While many rhymes in this couplet collection resemble sphinx-worthy riddles, Seuss's intention is clear: teach children to read in a way that is both entertaining and educational. It matters little that each wonderful vignette has nothing to do with the one that follows. (We move seamlessly from a one-humped Wump and Mister Gump to yellow pets called the Zeds with one hair upon their heads.) Children today will be as entranced by these ridiculous rhymes as they have been since the book's original publication in 1960 so amused and enchanted, in fact, they may not even notice they are learning to read!

A Dr Seuss classic. Every home should have this book. A really fun way to read about colours, numbers and opposites. The usual Dr Seuss collection of crazy characters appear. Wonderful to read out loud with it's rhythms and rhymes and a great book for an early reader with the simple text and repetition. If you haven't read this book yet, this is a definite must buy for your children's book collection.
Fantastic rhymes and rhythms to add to the quirky Seuss illustrations. Fantastic books for young readers who are just starting to sound out words. Dr Seuss books should be part of every childhood and this is one of his classics. All reading should be this much fun. Highly recommended for those wanting to develop a love of reading in their children.
