The Cat in the Hat by Dr. Seuss


In The Cat in the Hat by Dr. Seuss there are many exciting things taking place between Sally and her brother. Dr. Seuss is infamous for his rhyming stories. The eponymous cat appears in six of Seuss's rhymed children's books. First published in 1957 and then renewed in 1985, The Cat in the Hat has continued to be a popular children's book. Children love the silliness and rhyming that go on in Suess' books, they are also able to understand most of the vocabulary. There are contemporary books that have the tension presented in The Cat in the Hat, while I can not think of any that directly compare (poetry and theme)one that comes to mind for younger children is Click, Clack, Moo Cows That Type, mainly because it is imaginative. For children who are a little older The Magic Tree House Series comes to mind because it is imaginative and adventurous.
