Read with my son when he was in first grade. The Dr. Seuss books were always a hit.

There is not a story here. This is little quizzes on each page and they are trying to trick you. Some of the answers are neither one. One question that got me was how old do you have to be president. I was confident in my answer of 40. I don't know if they actually taught it in class or it's my memory, but in my school, I remember being taught the VP has to be 35 and the president has to be 40. I looked it up on the google and it's 35, so I had that fact incorrect. See, I learned something from this book.

There are lots of fun things about this. We had fun working on this as a family. I didn't know this existed. It was great fun to see if we had the answers right. Dr. Seuss is the man.

This is one of my favourite Dr. Seuss books so far. It is full of little puzzles. Some of them are trivia and some of them are riddles. Much more fun than his long rhyming books that are just full of silliness. This has silliness, but I found it much more easy to enjoy.

This book is so very fun, it is full of silly questions, some of which are trick questions, and even the answer pages are entertaining.

I also enjoyed the variety of questions, what a great book to get kids thinking creatively.

This is a Dr. Seuss book filled with Seussian questions. A lot of them are trick questions. The questions are rather random, and the answers can be quite funny. Still, this is a hard one to read for the very little kids as they may not know many answers and may get mad at being tricked. (Do pineapples grow on pine trees or apple trees? Neither they grow on a pineapple bush.)

Having read the two Cat and the Hat books - having taught them, even - I expected from the title that this would be more of the same. I mean, obviously there's a quiz in it, but I thought that there would be a story of sorts too. There isn't. It's just random questions, some of them trick questions, and as such it doesn't really hold my attention.

There was one genuinely funny bit. The reader is challenged to do better on the quiz than two featured children... apparently they got it 100% wrong, and one of the questions was to identify which of these two kids was in a portrait. If they're too thick to identify themselves, no wonder they failed everything...

A book full of trivia and puzzles to exercise the minds of young readers. As imaginative and silly as you would expect.
