Your Favorite Seuss (Classic Seuss) Review: A must have for any book collection, for adults or kids - Who doesn't love dr seuss? I grew up being read and reading these books and now raising my kids reading to them..greatest part is its like the greatest hits book and has 13 of the best 1s all in 1 book.. Review: Splendidly assembled with great extras - Each story is preceded by a one page intro (usually by a children's author) and followed by selected images from other Seuss works (including his advertisements) that provide insights into the creative process. These are really captivating additions for the parents reading the stories and might be interesting to kids as they get older as well. To pack all the stories into one book, the editors did selectively compress some images to fit what might have been on two pages in the original to one in this book. I was concerned about this before buying, but now that I've read through all the stories I am not. The pages to compress were very well selected and I didn't find it detracted from the beauty or flow of the content. The book is heavy, but my three year old girl (of below average size) can pick it up and bring it to me. I'd recommend laying the book down to read it. Many will find it a bit heavy to hold up high in the air.

I'm so glad I was able to find a used copy at a reasonable price.
I've been wanting to add many of the stories in this book to my personal "library" and was so happy that I found a used copy here on Amazon at a reasonable price. It would have been nice if my budget could allow me to buy it in new condition so that it would still have that new book smell, but the price was worth it.

Best Book ever
This book is the best thing I have ever received. I am not much of a reader. But Dr. Seuss is one of my favorite authors. I have always loved his books. Once I received this book. It blew my mind. Has so much in it that was not expected. Loved how it was put together, the information that was in it, the stories as well. So many other have seen it and they loved it as well.

Great for the value!
I bought this book because it has a lot of the Dr Seuss books in it and it was a great value when we bought it. In fact I have to agree with the other reviews that mention the fact that this is a heavy big book not so easy for a young kid to handle but my son loves the stories and it was a bargain for what it is. It is also true what other reviewers mentioned about the page formatting being different from the originals (it is more compressed altough everything is there). I give it 5 stars because Dr Seuss is great, my son loves it, and this has a lot of stories and costed what we would have paid for one or two books if bought separatedly. Great for the value, great Dr Seuss classics at just a fraction of the cost!

Perfect for our niece
Our little niece was celebrating her first Christmas, and we felt the need to provide some traditional gifts to get her started. Naturally, she won't be reading even Dr. Seuss any time soon, but it does give her parents a great go to book so that they can read to her. Like many of the other reviewers have mention, this is not a book for little hands to hold. It's thick and heavy, not designed for children. However, it IS the perfect solution to keep on the nightstand for the parent to share and read from. The illustrations are great, too. If you're buying this for the child to read, I'd hesitate. If you bought it as we did for the parent to read from, you've found a great, cost-effective solution.

Great book filled with Seuss' best, but too bulky for young child.
Bought this so my 3-year-old son could enjoy some of Dr. Seuss's best stories, the ones I fell in love with as a kid. Seemed like a good deal to get many stories in one, instead of buying all of the books separately. The book has some interesting anecdotal/historical essays (written by the who's-who in the literary/dramatic arts field) to each story which are interesting to adults, but your young child will care less about. My only true complaint about the book is that it is large and very heavy and therefore too difficult for a young child to handle by himself. Since my son is only 3 I hold it and read it to him now, so it's not a deal-breaker by any means.

BEST COLLECTION!
I bought this book over 30 years ago for my daughter when she was a baby. It was lost in a moving mishap. Now with a grand baby on the way I wanted it for him. It is very hard to find. Maybe it isn’t in print anymore? This has the best collections of Suess! My daughter never got through the full Sleep Book story. Horton, Yertle the Turtle, The Lorax and so much more! Where the jacket of the book is badly damaged, I don’t even care. The stories are what matter to me. The experience of reading it to another little one. I plan to make a new custom jacket for it. If you have little ones, GET THIS BOOK! Highly recommend!

Muy bonito con imágenes y muchos detalles. Me pareció un muy buen libro para dar de regalo para niños (como de 8 años ya que las historias son largas). Algo caro tal vez pero es de muy buena calidad.

Awesome collection of some of my favourite Dr Seuss stories in one book. Gives a little insight into each story too which is interesting for parents as well as the kids. It is a BIG book so it is a bit heavy for little ones to pick up/hold but well worth it.

Hier überzeugen Text und Illustrationen. Habe ich diese Bücher früher oft den Kindern vorlesend ins Deutsche übersetzt, waren sie wegen der Bilder ganz begeistert. Die englischen Reime machen auch Älteren Spass und früh übt sich heute, wer es später leichter mit einer Fremdsprache haben will. Spielerisch lernen ist hier angesagt mit 13 Geschichten von Dr. Seuss und den phantastischen Bildern, die ihren Reiz einfach nicht verlieren. Klare Kaufempfehlung. Ich verschenke die Dr.Seuss Bücher heute immer wieder gerne an die Kleinen und jeder mag sie!
