This is a great book. It has all the fun language and art that make Dr. Seuss great, but the one thing it is lacking is the fun narrative that accompanies the very best works and Dr. Seuss. Still, a great read.   hide

So no, there is no logical plot, but we get fun pictures and dazzling rhymes that we love.    hide

Part of the night his head sticks out, and then the other part of the night his feet stick out, which may not sound interesting, but told in rhyme and with an accompanying picture, its quite powerful.   hide
