This audiobook had 12 classic Dr. Seuss tales including my absolute favorite tale, The Lorax". This was a great audiobook because, of course, the stories stand the test of time. But it was also great because of the quality of narrators overall. The stories were read by the likes of Ted Danson, Kelsey Grammar, Dustin Hoffman and John Lithgow. You could tell by the narration that the narrators were truly enjoying the stories and were reading as if they were sharing this beloved story with their own child.

Fantastic recording! Kelsey Grammer and John Lithgow are the highlights. Surprising letdown was Dustin Hoffman reading Horton Hears a Who. His cadence was off so much it's hard to listen. ( )

This book rhymes. I like it ! (: i reccomend this for kids.

The Cat in the Hat comes in on a rainy day and makes a huge mess for the brother and the sister with the help of Thing 1 and Thing 2. Just as the mother is pulling up and things seem impossible to clean up, the Cat does the impossible and leaves the house just as spotless as it was before his existence. This is a funny and adventurous classic that can be read over and over again. ( )
