I want to get my DS some Dr Seuss books. Looking on amazon I can afford to get 3 books at the moment. So which ones would you recommend to get us started?
Thanks

One of DD2's favourites is What was I scared of? It's about a little fellow who is followed everywhere (in the dark!) by a pair of green trousers with nobody inside until he's scared witless, but then realises that the 'spooky empty pants' are just as scared as he is. It's my favourite Seuss story :)

Green Eggs and Ham is a must. It's still my favourite!

Costco have the full set on offer at £25 if that helps?

Thanks for the suggestions. Looking forward to reading something new. I can read all of our other stories without looking at the book!

Book of Bedtime Stories. It had about three stories/poems - still beloved! Great pictures too

Another favourite is The Sneetches.

It's Oh the Places You'll Go.

My DD loves all things Suess! I'd say Cat in the Hat is a must as is Green Eggs and Ham. Maybe the Lorax as well seeing as its just about to come out in the Cinema? We have quite a few - I especially like Oh the Things You'll Do (I think that's the title, might be wrong).
