These funny but thought-provoking picture books are ideal for independent readers or reading aloud. Dr. Seuss addresses life’s ups and downs with humorous verse and whimsical illustrations. Dr. Seuss’s beloved story teaches kids to treat the planet with kindness. Just what the doctor ordered for new retirees, old souls, and kids at heart. The perfect celebration of the person you were born to be. A tiny speck of dust contains an entire miniature world--Who-ville. Like mistletoe, candy canes, and caroling, the Grinch is a mainstay of the holidays.

Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

Since 1961, Ten Apples up on Top has been helping preschoolers learn to count and read simultaneously. Simple illustrations and even simpler rhymes make this apple-balancing competition between a dog, a tiger, and a lion a fun, easy place to practice sight words and phonics. Siblings can even take turns reading phrases like "Seven apples up on top. I am so good they will not drop." The inevitable tumbling crash is a great climax for busy toddlers to enjoy, and parents will appreciate the cooperative lesson the last page offers. (Preschool to early reader) --Jill Lightner

4.0 out of 5 stars Shorter and Smaller in size than the Original
Reviewed in the United States on November 14, 2023
Verified Purchase
I purchased this book as a gift for a baby shower based on the fact that I loved this book as a child and still have my original copy. Be aware that this is a "simplified" version of the original meant for toddlers. That information IS contained in the description, but a buyer has to click open the entire description to see that info. I'll still give the book as the gift but wanted to call attention to this, as it's not immediately clear from the listing, and I didn't expect to have to read the fine print when ordering a book with which I was already familiar.

My son loved this book, I read him 3 books before bed and he picked this one every night for months, I had to buy more books in hopes he would stop picking it every night!

Thankfully the 10 apples books craze is over, he now just picks occasionally.

It is a good book, short, simple and fun, good book for learning to read.
