This is a classic book that could help children write and understand poetry.
  DakotahEpple | Apr 30, 2013 |
A classic, well known by people of all ages, and has truly lasted throughout the decades. Dr. Seuss is a master of rhyme and of making up non-sensical words in this story about a boy and a girl who are home without their mother on a rainy day. When the cat in the hat comes along they get into a lot of trouble and end up with a big mess.

This is a fun book and has a lot of description and rhyming words. ( )
  kaf015 | Apr 24, 2013 |
I would use this book to discuss character with the student also good to use to help students with word recognition since there are so many rhyming words.

Students tend to like this book because of all thing the Cat does. ( )

This book is another one of my childhood favorites. This book is about 2 kids that are at home without there parents and they are supposed to be doing chores. This book is good for teaching students about rhyming words as well as a beginning on writing their own poetry. ( )

This is classic book to be used in a lesson about rhyming. This is also a book to use in celebrating Dr. Seus Day!

Haiku summary

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 039480001X, Hardcover)

He may be an old standby, but he never lets us down. When in doubt, turn to the story of the cat that transformed a dull, rainy afternoon into a magical and just-messy-enough adventure. There's another, hidden adventure, too: this book really will help children learn to read. With his simple and often single-vowel vocabulary, the good Doctor knew what he was doing: hear it, learn it, read it--laughing all the way. The Cat in the Hat is a must for any child's library.
