Children will be cheered just contemplating the outrageous array of troubles they're lucky they don't have. When I was quite young and quite small for my size, I met an old man in the Desert of Drize. The old man looks like a cross between a cartoon granddad and a swami; he sits on top of a cactus, and tells his young listener that the best way to get over any sadness is to imagine all the ways you could be worse off. uppose, just suppose, you were poor Herbie Hart, who has taken his Throm-dim-bu-lator apart!
This has a more hurried, formulaic feel than the best Seuss, and it seems to showcase a less acute grasp of child psychology than usual. (Does it really make a child feel better to think of poor Harry Haddow, who, try as he will, can't make a shadow, or Gucky Gown, who lives by himself ninety miles out of town?) But the illustrations alone make this morality tale a minor classic. Follow along in this crazy, classic, large-formatted book with a slightly smaller print than the Beginner titles and has more sentences or paragraphs per page and an overall bigger binding. Dr. Seuss's humorous but thought-provoking books are ideal for independent readers or reading aloud and are perfect for sparking lively discussions about varied subjects. Kids will want to read this story again and again!
