"Did you ever fly a kite in bed? Did you ever walk withten cats on your head?" Such are the profound, philosophicalqueries posed in this well-loved classic by Theodor"Dr. Seuss" Geisel. While many rhymes in this coupletcollection resemble sphinx-worthy riddles, Seuss's intention is clear:teach children to read in a way that is both entertaining andeducational. It matters little that each wonderful vignette hasnothing to do with the one that follows. (We move seamlessly from aone-humped Wump and Mister Gump to yellow pets called the Zeds withone hair upon their heads.) Children today will be as entranced bythese ridiculous rhymes as they have been since the book's originalpublication in 1960--so amused and enchanted, in fact, they may noteven notice they are learning to read!
