Four silly stories by Dr. Seuss about some rather interesting subjects.

The Sneetches, the title story, is about birds. Half have stars on their bellies, the other half don't. The ones with the stars lord it over the ones without. One day, a man offers to add stars to those with none.

The Zax is a tale of two creatures who won't budge from their tracks to let the other through.

Too Many Daves is a crazy poem about a woman who named all of her sons Dave.

Finally, What was I Scared of? tells the story of "a pair of walking green pants with nobody inside them."

This is probably my favorite Seuss book. I've always loved The Sneetches, and Too Many Daves is a poem that I can partially recite. Anyway, some great stories.

Horton the elephant hears a small call for help from a speck of dust, and concludes that tiny people live there! However, a sour kangaroo doesn't hear as well as Horton, and ridicules him. And then she decides to make him boil the speck in beezle-nut oil. Horton and the Whos must prove that the Whos do exist, before it's too late.

Go Horton! He's the all around nice guy sort and is willing to help anybody in trouble. Oh, and I might add that I still read Horton.

A lazy bird named Mazy is tired of sitting on her nest and trying to keep her egg warm, so when Horton the elephant comes along, she begs him to take care of her nest and egg. Horton finally agrees and Mazy flies off for a vacation at the beach. But Horton's friends laugh at him, and hunters come and capture him and the tree with the nest with the egg. (And the green grass grows all around, all around, the green grass grows all around...) But Horton stays faithful, one hundred percent.

This is a great book. It's humerous and rhyming. Please read this book!

In a series of increasingly more difficult tongue twisters, a Fox tries to find something that Mr. Knox can say.

If you can't say "Fox in socks on Knox in box." ten times fast, your tongue may need lubrication. What better way than to read straight through Seuss' book without one mistake? Take courage, though. The book ends with a (relatively) easy section on Tweedle Beetles.
