Book Review: Dr. Seuss’s ABC


Dr. Seuss’s ABC (I Can Read It All By Myself Beginner Books)

Dr. Seuss. Random House Books for Young Readers 1963, Hardcover, 63 pages, $2.98

Rating: ★★★★☆

This is a memorable alphabet book, populated with real and imaginary animals, and written in Dr. Seuss’s witty, rhythmic, rhyming style.  Each letter comes with its own short vignette, allowing for a regular sense of accomplishment for beginning readers, who will also appreciate the clever alliteration for each letter, as in “Many mumbling mice are making midnight music in the moonlight… mighty nice.”  It’s certainly not great literature, but so fun to read that it can almost make the reader forget he is learning a new skill.
