Book Reviews of Horton Hatches the EggBook Review: As touching as it is wacky.... Summary: 5 Stars
Horton remarks: "An elephant's faithful - 100 percent!" as he struggles to keep his word by protecting a lazy bird's egg. It teaches the important lesson of standing on principle, in spite of the hardships one might encounter along the way. Of course it comes across as fun, never preachy. This book actually brings tears to my eyes, even though it is so zany!
Book Review: A child's hero Summary: 5 Stars
Horton Hatches the Egg was read to me as an infant. Many years later, I read it to my infant daughter. In my opinion, it is one of Theodor Geisel's (Dr. Seuss) best works. Through his uncanny sense of humor, rhyme and rhythm, he tells a tale of an elephant who gave his word. This story teaches the meaning and value of integrity!
Book Review: Not just whimsical rhyming makes this book enchanting Summary: 5 Stars
Of course this book is a well-loved rhyming treasure. However, only as as adult and parent, do I 'get' the ending. "It should be that way," is repeated after the egg hatches to reveal a baby Horton bird. After all, it teaches, he did the work, and deserves to reap the reward.Just delightful in every way.
Book Review: Brings back childhood memories Summary: 5 Stars
I loved this book as a child and don't know what happened to it ( anyone have a copy of it with my name? Last name was CROW ) but I wanted it again because it was part of my childhood and I wanted to share it now, with my grandchildren.
I loved it. The "baby" was so darn cute!
