2022 EDIT: Doesn't interest me much anymore. I don't think it ever did. Great rhyming, though.
Final Score: 3/5
Original Review:
Arguably Dr. Seuss' most famous book. 'The Cat in the Hat' is fun and really creative, if kind of creepy in a STRANGER-DANGER! INTRUDER ALERT! perspective. I wouldn't call it the best of children's classic literature - the two kids are blank slates that contrast with the troublemaking Cat and Things 1 and 2 (plus the delightfully nagging Fish). But it's playfully entertaining for what it is.
It also has one of the best closing lines ever:
"Should we tell her about it?
Now, what SHOULD we do?
Well...
What would YOU do
If your mother asked YOU?"
Final Score: 3.5/5
