Perfect
This is what a compilation should be; it's stuffed with "greatest hits" and extra information. It's fulfilling on its own but left me wanting to explore further. It can be enjoyed in nuggets or read in long sittings. On top of all other merits, it's reasonably priced, especially for such a sturdy and handsomely bound volume. I disagree with other reviewers that it's too bulky--as a child that's what I loved about Dr. Suess books the most--they were huge to my small hands. I felt like I was reading a "big people" book even though they were simple enough for a beginning reader to enjoy. A purist will be dismayed that the layout of the original pages of the individual books has been changed in some cases, but all the artwork is represented so it's a minor quibble (in contrast to many volumes of "Alice In Wonderland" or the Narnia books where pages of illustrations are missing).
The quality of the content is unquestionable--time hasn't diminished these works in the slightest; the messages underneath the simple, quirky, weird rhymes/imagery are more relevant today than ever, and just as captivating. The biographical sections and essays are informative but brief, they don't interrupt the fun.
If you are a fan or, like me, some
one
who has been away from "Suess-land" far too long, and don't already possess the works in this collection, don't hesitate to pick up a copy today, you won't be sorry.

Suess for Adults
I originally bought this as a present for my sister-in-law's baby shower, but once I received the book, I had to keep it. If you loved Dr. Suess as a kid this is a book for you. Filled with the original stories and images, it also offers some short stories written by Suess, essays written about the man, and pictures. I wouldn't suggest it for young children, but it is a great addition to
your
bookcase!
Dr. Suess for Everyone
My husband and I picked this anthology up at Sam's Club (for a really good price, but I
only
saw it there that
one
time) about a year or so ago and we have not regretted it. Our children enjoy hearing these stories over and over.
The "Sleep Book" included in this book is one of my new
favorite
s. It really helps my children (ages 2 and a half and 11 months) settle down for bed.
I agree that it is not really a book that young children can hold because it is too heavy, but I can manage pretty well holding it while reading to my young children. My children love looking at the pictures and listening to the words with the "magical rhythms". Sometimes they play as I read and come over occasionally to view the illustrations.
This is a very good book. My children love it and I love it too!

can't beat it
It is awesome because it has so many awesome books for such an awsome price my daughter loves it. Must own
love it
My infant loves this book. She loves every story in it. Some are really easy; some are a little harder. It gives a parent the opportunity to challenge their child. If they want to be read to, read a hard
one
, if they don't really care, read an easy, fun one. It's a great collection.
