I know that Dr Suess books are supposed to be whacky and weird, but this one just makes NO sense at all.

Daisy Head Mayzie is about a girl who grows a flower out of her head. I believe this book is about society’s inability to integrate peoples differences without locking them away or exploiting them. As the story progresses, Mayzie begins to regret her choices “But what is money without friends? A dream had led her far astray. That was the price she had to pay” Dr Seuss probably cared about this, being a creative himself. The story conveys his feelings about the dangers of falling for corporate bigwigs. If more people accepted their differences and didn't try to profit off of them, the world would be a better place. It would also be better if people stopped trying to benefit off of other people's quirks and uniqueness.

Baca sepintas, tentang sebuah bunga Daisy yang tiba-tiba tumbuh di kepala seorang gadis bernama Mayzie. Fenomena itu kemudian menjadi kehebohan dan diperbincangkan oleh semua orang.

setelah browsing, ternyata ilustrasi di buku ini bukan dibuat sepenuhnya oleh Dr. Seuss. Karya ini dipublikasikan setelah Dr. Seuss meninggal, ditemukan dalam bentuk draft yang kemudian oleh keluarganya diputuskan untuk dipublikasikan dengan penambahan ilustrasi dan jalan cerita. Err..pantas saja sepertinya ada plot hole aneh di tengah cerita, trus gambarnya terlalu "mulus"... Dan yang aneh, di sana ada Cat in the Hat, tapi dianya ga ngapa2in, seakan2 cuma sebagai penegasan bahwa ini adalah bukunya Dr. Seuss.. Well...

Great book about the misfortune of fame and money. It’s not all as great as you think it will be. Beware and aware of the friends you’ll loose in the end

This book was found as an "unfinished draft" and therefore finished by someone (s) other than Dr. Seuss. It shows. Silly, but Ok.

The book says it's by Dr. Seuss. It lies.

This is an entertaining story for younger children. The rhyme and meter within the book was a little off. This book would be good to entertain your children for a few minutes, but overall it is not as great of quality as some of the other Dr. Suess books.

This is so obviously a posthumous release - it’s definitely not up to Dr. Seuss standards! However, my 6yo enjoyed it very much, so I’m glad she picked it up at the library. We have read it a few times, but we certainly don’t need our own copy.

My favourite Seuss books are the ones that have some narrative thread, like this one. Nonsensical rhymes get old pretty quickly and the tongue twisted too! The illustrations in this were also a lot more detailed and diverse. This was a sweet story about a girl who sprouts a daisy atop her head and then contends with fame, fortune and wondering whether anyone still loves her. I loved the archways of books in Principal Grumm's office and got a kick out of Mayzie's Mum being an engineer.

Daisy-Head Mayzie, Dr. Seuss

The book is about a 12-year-old warmhearted schoolgirl named Mayzie who one day suddenly sprouts a bright white daisy from her head. It causes alarm in her classroom, family, and town, until an agent makes her a celebrity. The Cat in the Hat who serves as the narrator to this story helps Mayzie to understand her problem and persuade her to go back home.

The book has a mini-song titled "Daisy-Head Mayzie" which her classmates chant.

It's Dr. Seuss Week and I borrowed 7 of his books from my library. This is one of them. I remember reading it to my children. I also remember watching it on TV with them.

Daisy-Head Mayzie in sitting in her classroom when out of nowhere and all of a sudden, she feels something on the top of her head. It's a daisy and it's grown right out of her hair. The teacher thinks it's a joke, and upon trying to pull it out, is unsuccessful. All the kids start laughing and she is brought to the principals office. He tries helping her with calling in a bunch of people from different professions including THE MAYOR, which made me laugh because he is a buffoon who talks of what he would do about the situation, if he was Reelected including making dairies illegal if they aren't grown in the ground. It's like it's All too familiar, today and in yesterdays, politicians are useless and make a bad situation all about themselves and who cares about the one who needs help now. I love how he bought that into the story for the adult reader.

This story, as usual, has lessons to be learned, it's okay to be different and to accept ourselves as we are, and true good people will love you for who you are. I'm sure I'm missing more.

I enjoyed reading the Notes from the Editors at the end. It was explained that a script was found by one of his family members after his death and Hanna-Barbera (funny I always thought it was Hanna-Barbara) made it into a cartoon before the original book revision was released. I also liked there were pictures and we could see the differences with Ted's sketches and the film adaptation.

It was hard to rate this story as I would had preferred Dr. Seuss's drawings instead, and why I've lowered it to a 3.

Loved this Seussian celebration, published after his death. The explanation of how this came about at the end of the book is interesting and fun for Seuss trivia fans.
A great read-aloud, as all of his are! For ANY age!
