Seeing as he mentioned Dr Seuss I'm going with The Twat In The Hat which is quite obvious and a bit shit BlushGrin but I'm sure MNers will come up with good ones..

He did hesitate a bit too long but maybe he remembered that Dr Seuss had recently been 'cancelled' by certain quarters.

'Yertle the turtle' was one of my favourites and it has a political misuse of power theme.

Or maybe he has never done the Bath Bed Story for any of his multiple children? I feel that is more likely.

Why would you want to taint lovely stories? I really don't understand British humour sometimes.
I know I'm buzz kill and boring.

That was a man who has never, ever read a story to his children speaking.

He enjoys the Flashman Papers according to Penguin books.
'In Flashman’s world, incompetence and arrogance always wins out. Sound familiar?'
