Good book
Lessons taught in the most wonderful way possible
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
These three stories are a wonderful trip for children into an imaginative world, where they learn important lessons, in the most fun way possible.In the first, `I Can Lick 30 Tigers Today' the character learns that his bravado does not live up to the reality, in `The Glunk that Got Thunk' children learn how insurmountable problems can be solved by working together and keeping a level head, and in `King Loii Katz' children learn a very important lesson: That sometimes one has to follow ones own conscience and put a stop to the bandwagon. It only takes one to say `ENOUGH'.Beautifully illustrated, and with a wonderful sense of humour and imagination.
My Favorite as a Child, Now My Daughter's Favorite. . .
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
This book (or books, since there are 3 complete stories within the covers) is a fantastic journey into the extended family of the Cat in the Hat. His great great great grandfather learns a lesson about hubris. His son learns the dangers of overconfident bragging. His daughter learns the value of teamwork, and why families need to stand up for one another. The language is delightfully silly for children, yet parents will recognize friends, family and foes in Seuss' wise and deadly accurate characterizations. I got this book c.1970 and it was my favorite, now my 3-year old daughter has me read it every day. NOTE: As a four year old, I found the Glunk a little scary. My daughter doesn't seem to have that apprehension! A pleasure to read that children will love!
If you want a memory that will last forever...

This book is one that has followed me through my entire life in the memories shared between me and my father. He read me these stories when a was a child and the memories still make me smile as I've just graduated from college. I recommend this book to all parents and children, and make sure you read it together.
Fun to read!!

I loved reading this book to my little sister and I could do it again evn though I'm in college now. It is not one of the most well known Dr. Seuss books but it's great. The stars of most of the stories are two cute little cats who are apparently the Cat in the Hat's children. The best story is the crafty glunk who got thunk which is a great read and a great lesson about letting your imagination run away with you and working together. How else could the brother and sister kick out that nasty Glunk than by using their unthinkers TOGETHER!!
Wonderful classic Seuss!

The best part of this book is "The Glunk that Got Thunk." Back in July 1969 this story was printed in Woman's Day Magazine prior to the book's publication. My mother (even though this was 3 years before I was born!) cut out the pages and but them into plastic protectors in a folder to keep. I still have that "book" from almost 30 years ago, and I have been thrilled to hear my son laugh out loud as I read it to him! I can't wait till my daughter is old enough to enjoy it too!
