A Great Graduation Gift
Format: Hardcover
This was one of my favorite books when I was a child. I've been purchasing this as a graduation gift for years. I gave it to both my daughters when they graduated high school and was happy to read that very copy we gifted our daughter to my granddaughter. The book has also helped me in some difficult times of my own life. Dr. Seuss is timeless and this makes a great gift.

I recommend using this book. Read review.
Format: Hardcover
I recommend this book. Not only because it's a Dr. Sue's book, but because at the end of the school year. I ask my son's teacher to sign it. It's a sweet memory to have and it will be a sweet memory to look at once they graduate Elementary. It's a must. The price is great. Quality... Everything about it is great. Most of all.... Reading the their teacher's have to say about them. Is so sweet!
