Loading... Oh the place you'll goby Dr. Seuss
None. Yep, got this one for high school graduation. Excellent. ( )I haven't read this book before. I loved it!!!!! What a fun book! It is inspirational, too. I was smiling the entire time I was reading it. I can see why people give it as a graduation gift, and in fact, the dust jacket says that it was from a graduation speech that Dr. Seuss once gave. Nice thinking the more you read the more places you'll go !! Like this words. Nice thinking the more you read the more places you'll go !! Like this words. This is a book that I enjoy reading to my eighth graders at the end of every school year. It's a wonderful graduation story...and a special way to say send them off. I can tell that it's special for them too.
This is a great inspirational story that gives children hope for the future. Great to use at the end of the year. Is contained in
Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0679805273, Hardcover)Inspirational yet honest, and always rhythmically rollicking, Oh, the Places You'll Go! is a perfect sendoff for children, 1 to 100, entering any new phase of their lives. Kindergartners, graduate students, newlyweds, newly employeds--all will glean shiny pearls of wisdom about the big, bountiful future. The incomparable Dr. Seuss rejoices in the potential everyone has to fulfill their wildest dreams: "You'll be on your way up! / You'll be seeing great sights! / You'll join the high fliers / who soar to high heights." At the same time, he won't delude the starry-eyed upstart about the pitfalls of life: "You can get all hung up / in a prickle-ly perch. / And your gang will fly on. / You'll be left in a Lurch."But fear not! Dr. Seuss, with his inimitable illustrations and exhilarating rhymes, is convinced ("98 and 3/4 percent guaranteed") that success is imminent. As long as you remember "to be dexterous and deft. And NEVER mix up your right foot with your left," things should work out. (All ages) --Emilie Coulter (retrieved from Amazon Wed, 02 Jan 2013 21:33:13 -0500) |
