A wonderful collection of blurbs from various Dr. Seuss books that allow readers to learn various lessons. Each excerpt is titled with the intended lesson, and cites the book that it came from. All of the illustrations are full bleed, or include white spaces to allow for illustrations from multiple books on one page. The end pages are different; the one in the beginning says "for those just starting out" and the end one says "and those already on their way". Both pages show an illustration of a boy, but in the beginning page he is walking, and at the end he is running up some stairs. This book can be really inspiring for people who are starting out a new part of their life. This book was especially important to me because one of the most inspiring educators in my life gave this copy to me when I graduated high school.

Thank you, Dr. Seuss, for reminding us how amazing and important we are and how not knowing everything is not only fine but and opportunity to find treasures day by day.

A nice little book to add to your Seuss collection

When I first opened the cover of this book, I thought it was just a cheap way to make money off of past publications. The book features quotes from other Dr. Seuss books couched under a title like Know How to Make an Entrance or Listen to Good Advice—which, as a package, are what Dr. Seuss terms Seuss-isms. But, as I read further, I found it fascinating to see Dr. Seuss's interpretation of the meanings of his own works, as did my four-year-old. Teaching the importance of message as a teacher, makes a book like this valuable, as, at times, it can be hard to extract a literal message from Seuss's high-level imagination and sing-songy style.

Note: All of my picture book reviews come in packages of three, where I choose to review my favorite of the three.
This book is reviewed alongside P.D. Eastman's Flap Your Wings—a noble book about another hatching egg that provides an alternative to the classic Ugly Duckling story—and Richard Scarry's The Country Mouse and the City Mouse which retells that classic story well with Scarry's beautiful illustrative style. Seuss-isms! won my review simply because of its unique purpose: to share a message explicitly from the many stories of Dr. Seuss—a trip down memory lane with included meaning for our life.

Motivational book that takes no space in your purse or pocket.

Good... inspiring quotes... but could have been better

Heartwarming, nostalgic and fun! ❤️

This book isn't worth the time to read to a child. While it takes some of the best lines from Dr. Seuss, something an adult could understand, it has no coherency for a child because it lacks a story as it's spliced from all of his works.

Love it.

A compilation of text from a variety of Dr. Seuss books. Categorized under different subject headings.

I buy The Places you'll go and Seussisms a guide ----- and a Bible for each of my grandchildren as they graduate from high school and head toward college. They should be good for life with that in their hearts and head.
