This is my All-Time-Number-One-Favorite children's book.
Period.
I've read it to my kids so many times over the years that you'd think I'd be immune to it by now.

Oh my goodness! I loved so many things about this book that it would take me all day to list them! For one thing, Dr. Seuss’ writing is clearly more memorable in this book as he tells children who are on their way to facing life ahead of them on their own to have positive attitudes and face their fears head-on!

Whenever I read this book, I think about the hardships I had to endure during my life, but then I realize that life always has its ups and downs, and only you can decide what to make of your life, which is what Dr. Seuss has shown in this book. Probably my favorite verse in this book was this line:
