I generally can't stand Dr. Seuss books, but I really like this one, probably for three reasons: 1. the illustrations are by Quentin Blake instead; 2. there are no made-up words; and 3. it is unrelentingly positive, without the mean behavior of Seuss classics like Green Eggs and Ham or The Cat in the Hat.

Oh, The Thinks You Can Think review and Explanation of why I picked these up

Again, another book I really did like and enjoy...I read this book out of a bind up I found at the library...It was one of the first I read out of it...Not a favorite, but still a wonderful read...The ending was really funny because I know many of us who feel the way the ending described! :-) ( )

The book demonstrates and illustrates the ideas associated with up such as waking up and up in the air. The ending provides a chuckle. ( )

I can't quite reconcile words by Seuss with drawings by Quentin Blake. ( )
