Book Reviews of Horton Hears A Who!
Book Review: Horton Hears A Who by Dr. Seuss
Summary: 5 Stars
I needed the book fairly quickly and received it in a timely manner. I had no problems searching or ordering the book. I teach preschool and I am able to find books and other resources on Amazon. The fact that there is no shipping and handling makes it more appealing to me as I don't always have the extra funds. I recommend using Amazon for your on-line shopping.

Summary of Horton Hears A Who!
Illus. in color. Horton, the lovable elephant, tries to protect tiny creatures on a speck of dust. An easy reader with delightful verse and pictures.Surely among the most lovable of all Dr. Seuss creations, Horton the Elephant represents kindness, trustworthiness, and perseverance--all wrapped up, thank goodness, in a comical and even absurd package. Horton hears a cry for help from a speck of dust, and spends much of the book trying to protect the infinitesimal creatures who live on it from the derision and trickery of other animals, who think their elephant friend has gone quite nutty. But worse is in store: an eagle carries away the clover in which Horton has placed the life-bearing speck, and "let that small clover drop somewhere inside / of a great patch of clovers a hundred miles wide!" Horton wins in the end, after persuading the "Who's" to make as much noise as possible and prove their existence. This classic is not only fun, but a great way to introduce thoughtful children to essentially philosophical questions. How, after all, are we so sure there aren't invisible civilizations floating by on every mote? (Ages 4 to 8) --Richard Farr
