I could see playacting some of those sticky ones, pretending to be stuck to all sorts of silly things. It’s a quick read with imaginative scenes for the kids (and adults) to envision.

And a clever idea for green to be the only color. I adored the lovely, soft pencil drawings on every page.

Words that every child, teen, and adult should learn. It’ll take a disaster for the king to say those simple words. It’s a case of be careful what you wish for as the king is bored, bored, bored. In 1950, Bartholomew and the Oobleck won the Caldecott Honor. Other books by this author which I have reviewed include Sneetches and Other Stories, Horton Hatches the Egg & Horton Hears a Who!, Green Eggs and Ham, The Bippolo Seed and Other Lost Stories, The Lorax, Hooray for Diffendoofer Day!, Daisy-Head Mayzie, Thidwick the Big-Hearted Moose, The King's Stilts, Scrambled Eggs Super!, Horton and the Kwuggerbug and More Lost Stories, You're Only Old Once!, My Many Colored Days, McElligot's Pool, If I Ran the Circus, Sleep Book, I Can Lick 30 Tigers Today! and Other Stories, I Had Trouble in Getting to Solla Sollew, Oh, the Places You’ll Go!Īnother in the Bartholomew Cubbins series revolving around Bartholomew, a page boy in the service of the king. It is part of the Bartholomew Cubbins series and is a fantasy in Hardcover edition that was published by Random House for Young Readers on Octoand has 56 pages.

This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review. I received this book for free from the library in exchange for an honest review.
