5.0 out of 5 stars One of my all time favorites, December 29, 1999

By A Customer

I just got done reading this book (yet again) to my children before bed. I imagine my mom probably read it to me about a hundred times, too. If you read this book, (and I highly recommend that you do) you, too, will be captivated by it. And do not miss the illustrations, there's something new every time you look!

5.0 out of 5 stars FUNTASTIC!, April 3, 2006

By	lover of classics (Northern Virginia) - See all my reviews

This is one of Dr. Suess's books written under his pseudonym Rosetta Stone. This book shows once again what an amazingly clever man he was. Each of my children love this book. And I just finished reading it to my youngest son's preschool class. They enjoyed it so much they asked me to read it a second time! It is a fun and extremely enjoyable book for everyone!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars An Adorable Little Bug, October 10, 2001

By	"turtlepi" (Currently Arizona) - See all my reviews

By the time I was four years old I had this entire book memorized. My parents knew better than to skip pages, becuase I was paying attention. It is an adorable book about a little bug that sneezes and all the things that happen becuase of it. Who knew that a little sneezing bug could sink the ship "Mary Lou"?
