One of my favorites!

Reviewed in the United States on May 23, 2018

I read this book several times to my class of 5th graders every year- because I feel like it really speaks a lot about life. I work in a Title I school, where we are really focusing on getting all of our students to succeed- via whatever path they choose after high school. Many of our children had never been out of the county before this year, when we took them on a field trip across the state to a zoo. I feel like this book not only encourages them, but also kind of gives them a heads up of the reality of "later life". Sometimes you aren't on top of the world, and you do get lost, and you do have to keep going to try to get out of your rut. And you don't want to be caught with the people who are just "waiting around"...we want them to be proactive and do something about it. I save up all year and purchase each of my students a copy and write a note to them individually, so that they know that they have someone who is in their corner, really pushing for them. That being said, I also read this to my own small children- because they just really enjoy the story, and all of the pictures.

Great Book... But It is Printed Upside Down - Backwards

Reviewed in the United States on January 24, 2019

Verified Purchase

I paid nearly $20 for the hardcover book and then paid to import it to Ecuador. Wow am I upset that the publisher printed the words and pages the opposite direction of the cover. For $20 in the kindle age there really is no excuse for a publisher that sells thousands and thousands of copies to product work like this. I have read others complaining about the same issue. You need to check your quality control and be prepared to give a full refund when this happens. Then again, how hard is it to open a book and check it before you sell it???? Really really really annoying and is VERY upsetting since the taxes and shipping to import were more than the messed up book!!!!! GGGRRRrrrrrrrr Dr. Suess.

Classic Dr. Seuss story. What more needs to be said?

We purchased one copy for each of our kids. We have their coaches, teachers, etc. sign the book after each season with a little message. We plan to give them the books when they graduate from high school. What's really neat is they are 6 and 11 and have no clue we have been doing this. Hopefully we can keep that up and it makes a nice surprise and keepsake for them.

Graduation Presents

Reviewed in the United States on October 16, 2018

Verified Purchase

I bought two copies of this book for my children. Once they complete a grade in school, I will have their teachers sign it, and I will give them the book with notes from all their teachers on the day they graduate. Granted, I stole this idea from facebook, but it's so cute and Doctor Suess is such a great author.

I have read it to them once and will read it to them every year before school starts. It's an adorable and inspirational book to remind them to keep pushing forward. Dr. Suess was the first author I ever read (The Foot Book, to be exact) and I while I have seen this one all over the internet, I had never read it before I bought it for my kids.

The product itself came to me in two days, I have Prime, and there were a few nicks on the corners of the book. But I wouldn't say they're overly damaged or whatnot. Just don't expect the product to come in perfect condition. If you're going to steal my idea, the one I stole that is, I recommend storing the books in air tight bags in between readings and having them signed.

Simple and Simply Great Inspiration!

Reviewed in the United States on December 15, 2017

Verified Purchase

I gave this book to my stepchildren when they graduated from college. I read it myself in my 30s because I was a freelance writer, and this simple book helped me gather the courage to open myself to all the possibilities. I had a very successful career as a freelance writer of only non-fiction. In my retirement, I need to read this again as I'm now writing and indie publishing serious mid-grade/young adult fiction as Pleasant Oliver and once again, I need its boost of enthusiasm and courage for all the wonderful possibilities and opportunities that are going to come my way! In Spring 2018, I will give it my great nephew as he graduates from high school, and in later years, I will give it my other great nieces and nephews when they graduate from high school--maybe again when they graduate from college!

Okay, illustrations sub-par.

Reviewed in the United States on March 10, 2019

Verified Purchase

I suppose I was more into Dr. Suess as a child. I didn't care for the illustrations in this book that much. Is kinda over priced in my opinion. The messages are decent, but the illustrations aren't helping much to drive them home. I guess, overall, I'm just not into Dr. Suess books. I liked them as a child, but aren't digging them now because the illustrations aren't that great. The cover illustration on this is cool, but what's inside the book is only okay. I'm more into the Berenstein Bear books and appreciate the lessons they teach and the illustrations I feel are better and coincide with the messages perfectly.

As described, wonderful book. I got a copy for high school graduation and have decided to get my toddler a copy and have his teachers and therapist's write little notes overy the years and give to him at his graduation. He has severe autism and I want him to be able to look back at all of the people he may not remember, but they helped get him where he's going.

Great for graduation presents!

Reviewed in the United States on August 14, 2017

We got 2 of these for our son and daughter's teachers to sign as they grow up (to give them when they graduate). We're also writing letters to put within the pages over the years. The books are of great quality and should stand the test of time. I've also seen them used as 'advice books' where guests at graduation parties write little bits of advice for the graduates.

Ideal gift for a baby you barely know...

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 2, 2020

Verified Purchase

The thing about life is that most of your peers hit the same life events, at the same time. It’s tedious and a minefield when it comes to gift giving. So, I’ve settled on a secular system as far as kids are concerned.

Baby shower, Christening or “just because you care”? Step away from the overpriced “baby’s first tooth” rubbish and don’t concern yourself with keepsake baby booties! Just buy a butt load of these books and keep them in the cupboard. Every time your mate drops a little sproglet, dig one out and write a touching message in the title page. Just make sure you spell their name right…

Perfect book for any age. Fun and inspiring!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 28, 2018

Verified Purchase

Love this story!! Has a wonderful message for anyone of any age. I read this for the first time when my son received a set of Dr Seuss books as a baby, and we read it as often as I can get away with. I always make sure to emphasize certain parts, both the positive and the negative and discuss them with him (he's 6 years old now). It's incredibly inspiring, teaching you to follow your heart, reach for the stars and not let anything stand in your way. But it also teaches you that things don't always go as planned and you may find yourself lost and not where you want/ expected to be. But it's how you pick yourself up from those situations, which is just as important as when everything goes exactly as you want it to. Can't recommend it more highly.

Unashamed optimism leaps out from almost every page

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 8, 2019

Verified Purchase

Quite simply, this is a fantastic book, with exclamation marks galore!!! It makes me smile. It inspires a positive mental attitude. It makes me want to grab the nearest child (preferably one of my own), sit them down and impart the words of advice held within. The unashamed optimism leaps out from almost every page as the story follows a little boy in a yellow onesie on his journey through many weird and brightly-coloured places. I like to think of it as the first child-friendly self-help book, full to the brim with positive messages.

However, if like me you are more of a realist than an optimist, you will particularly like the notes of caution and realism peppered amongst the positivity. My favourites: 'Un-slumping yourself is not easily done.' And: 'Step with care and great tact and remember that Life's a Great Balancing Act.'

By this Book!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 30, 2021

I bought this book , about 3 years ago, when I was waiting for an operation for cancer. I saw the film Fracture with Anthony Hopkins and Ryan Gosling, as Ryan sat by the patient's bed and read from the book he had found in her house; he read a page called "Waiting";

Of course it became very real to me then, and I took it to my granddaughter, as this is such a celebrated author and I wanted her to experience it, from my perspective at the time, as we were all waiting hoping the operation would be a success. It was.

I bought it again last week, as three years on I was waiting to buy a kitten, after my little ginger girl cat died at 5 years old of liver disease. It got me through those awful months when I was waiting, saving and hoping I could get another ginger kitten that would bring me the love and the happiness, she did.

On Easter Sunday 2021 I got a beautiful little ginger kitten who brings me so much happiness and I hope I bring him; I truly believe this part of the book helps everybody who is waiting for something to happen for them.
