About this product

Product Information

The Star-Bellied Sneetches have bellies with Stars, but the Plain-Bellied Sneetches have none upon thars! Rivalries rocket when Sylvester McMonkey McBean steps in to prey on their prejudices, but in the end we realise that prejudice is nothing more than a ridiculous waste of time. With his unique combination of hilarious stories, zany pictures and riotous rhymes, Dr. Seuss has been delighting young children and helping them learn to read for over fifty years. Creator of the wonderfully anarchic Cat in the Hat, and ranked among the UK's top ten favourite children's authors, Seuss is firmly established as a global best-seller, with over 650 million books sold worldwide. As the first step in a major rebrand programme, HarperCollins is relaunching 17 of Dr. Seuss's best-selling books, including such perennial favourites as `The Cat in the Hat', `Green Eggs and Ham' and `Fox in Socks'. In response to consumer demand, the bright new cover designs incorporate much-needed guidance on reading levels, with the standard paperbacks divided into three reading strands - Blue Back Books for parents to share with young children, Green Back Books for budding readers to tackle on their own, and Yellow Back Books for older, more fluent readers to enjoy. `The Sneetches and Other Stories' belongs to the Yellow Back Book range.

  • Non-WOKE lessons for all, written during US Civil Rights era

    This wonderful book addresses many issues related to prejudice, superiority, judging others, segregation, division of people, rigid thinking (You're Wrong and I'm Right) as well as "Fear of the UNKNOWN"..in 4 short stories. It was written around the period of the US Civil Rights movement, and was a way that Dr Suess hoped to reach youth, by exposing them to the adult nonsense of judging people by the way they look. Due to the current trend of Woke-ism in modern education, most modern books that attempt to address this topic end up creating more division, hatred, confusion and self-doubt rather than understanding and self-reflection. Mercifully, we can go back a few decades and find someone with the wisdom of Dr Suess, who came from a place of love. Although this may not be "the best" of his writing, it is surely one of the most important in terms of the themes it brings up. Also, if you are triggered by my using the term WOKE...just ignore this review and look up the book yourself and see if you like it. And as I struggle to find good children's books and young adult titles that are not influenced by WOKE culture, perhaps someone will find this review of use.
