Loading... The 500 Hats of Bartholomew Cubbins (1938)by Dr. Seuss
I think I read/looked through it 10 times in a row and haven't seen it since, but I still remember the pictures (  ) EhEh | Apr 3, 2013 |  This is not a typical Dr. Seuss book, and sadly I wan't a huge fan. Maybe it was because I went into it thinking it would be more like his others and was very surprised to find that it was very long and less whimsical, although it does have a sense of fantasy to it with the magically appearing hats. I also had a hard time really seeing the message in it like his others, but it does nod to the notion of patience and understanding. (  ) KellyLPickett | Mar 28, 2013 | Genre: Fantasy Genre Critique: This book is a good example of fantasy through the use of imaginary characters and setting that is quite unbelievable (magic hats that won't come off a young man's head). The way the story is written though helps the reader to enjoy and follow along, and put the fact that the story can not be true to the side while they read. Review/Critique: I really enjoyed this book (gotta love Dr. Seuss) and thought it was an interesting change from some of his other styles of writing. There weren't a ton of funny made up words and places, and there seemed to be more of a plot than some of his other stories. Media: Black and white (Pencil sketching), red colored pencil for hats (  ) MkM | Mar 20, 2013 | This was a very different Dr. Seuss book than most I have read. It was very long and had much more text than his later stories. It also had no rhyming, again not following the pattern of his later work. I found the story to be frivolous and lacking any real point like a lot of Dr. Seuss books have despite the fun rhyming. I would not recommend this book to younger (preschool-1st grade) readers.

He finds a hat that a king likes so he gives it to him and then he goes home wiht his many hats. ( ) Gabe77 | Feb 28, 2012 | no reviews | add a review Is contained in
