98 and 3/4 per cent guaranteed!

One of the many benefits of teaching young children is you have constant opportunities to stumble across picture book gems, that would surely surpass you, unless of course you have children.

OH, THE PLACES YOU"LL GO! Is a charming book. The afternoon I read it too a bunch of 7 year olds, I was at the bookstore hunting down a copy.

I then read it to a 38 year old man. He loved it. Oh the places you'll go is a whimsical look into the journey of being human. Although for children, I think this book is an inspirational, everything-is going to be okay story.

I think it would make an excellent University graduation present or a nice pick-me-up gift for a much loved friend or family member going through a bit of a slump.


"On and on you will hike.
And I know you'll hike far
And face up to your problems
Whatever they are.."

I also love THE WAITING place that Dr.Seuss talks about in this book.

I usually feel that Dr. Suess books are perhaps just ¼ too long, I didn't feel that in this case.

This is a lovely book. Every child and adult should get themselves a copy.

Go Dr. Seuss!

Have you ever made hard choices? Big mistakes? This is YOUR book!

For a time, I worked as an editor at a Christian magazine. I learned that the children's articles were the most popular articles in our magazine - for both children and adults! The reason was, the simplicity of the children's articles really spoke to the hearts of the adults.

That's the beauty part of "The Places You'll Go." The simplicity of this message is easily and readily understood by one and all. Children may enjoy the sing-songy rhythms of the book but adults will appreciate its amazing depth and inspiration.

"With your head full of brains and your shoes full of feet,
You're too smart to go down any not-so-good street.
And you may not find any
you'll want to go down.
In that case, of course
you'll head straight out of town."

It really is a beautiful manual for life, reduced to 911 words, and expressed in language we can all understand and enjoy. I highly recommend this book.

A perfect gift for OLDER adults!

I've gifted this book to high school and college grads and I've gifted it to older adults and I'd have to say, I think the full depth and import of this book's important and inspirational message is almost lost on anyone less than 25 years old.

This book came into my life when I was busy making hard choices and having a very difficult time. It was instrumental in lifting me out of a very dark and deep slump. I highly recommend it as a gift for anyone who needs a little hit of joy and light in their life.
