Dr Seuss | A Classic Treasury

Five Dr Seuss classics in one hardback volume — the collection worth having on the shelf.

There is a moment somewhere around three when the short board books stop being enough and a proper story is wanted. This is the book for that stretch. The Cat in the Hat, The Cat in the Hat Comes Back, Green Eggs and Ham, Fox in Socks and How the Grinch Stole Christmas, all together.

Seuss has been helping children learn to read for over fifty years, and the reason is in the rhythm — the rhymes are so insistent that children start filling in the next word before they can properly read at all. Fair warning on Fox in Socks: it is genuinely difficult to read aloud, which is most of the fun.

• Five complete Dr Seuss stories in one hardback
• Rhyming text that supports early reading
• A generous gift, and one that lasts for years
