Bartholomew
and the OOblech
by Dr. Seuss -- all hebrew
|
|
Bartholomew and
the Oobleck easily qualifies as a Seuss classic,
first told way back in 1949. And its message--the
importance of owning up to your mistakes and
saying that you're sorry--is as timeless now as it
was then.
Bartholomew Cubbins serves thanklessly as pageboy
to King Derwin of Didd, a headstrong man who's
decided he isn't satisfied with mere sun, fog,
rain, and snow. ("Humph! The things that come down
from my sky!") |

 He wants
something else, something uniquely his own, so he calls
in his royal magicians ("Shuffle, duffle, muzzle, muff.
Fista, wista, mista-cuff. We are men of groans and
howls, mystic men who eat boiled owls"). Happy to
oblige, the magicians tell the king they can make "oobleck"
fall from the sky, only nobody--not even the
magicians--knows just what oobleck is. But after a night
of arcane incantations, everyone in the kingdom gets a
taste of the stuff (in the case of the Captain of the
Guard, literally!), as the green, gluey goo gums up
everything in sight.
Of course, Bartholomew tries to help, but it's
up to the king to save the day, as he learns
to utter not magic words but simple words with
magic in them: "I'm sorry." (Ages 4 to 8)
Book Description
Illus. in color by the author. An ooey-gooey, green
oobleck was not exactly what the king had in mind when
he ordered something extra-special from his royal
magicians. (Ages 4 to 120) |

Dr. Seuss was born Theodor Geisel in
Springfield, Massachusetts on March 2, 1904.
After attending Dartmouth College and Oxford
University, he began a career in advertising.
His advertising cartoons, featuring Quick,
Henry, the Flit!, appeared in several leading
American magazines. Dr. Seuss's first
children's book, And To Think That I Saw It On
Mulberry Street, hit the market in 1937, and
the world of children's literature was changed
forever! In 1957, Seuss's The Cat in the Hat
became the prototype for one of Random House's
best- selling series, Beginner Books. This
popular series combined engaging stories with
outrageous illustrations and playful sounds to
teach basic reading skills. Brilliant,
playful, and always respectful of children,
Dr. Seuss charmed his way into the
consciousness of four generations of
youngsters and parents. In the process, he
helped kids learn to read.
Winner of the Pulitzer Prize in 1984 and three
Academy Awards, Seuss was the author and
illustrator of 44 children's books, some of
which have been made into audiocassettes,
animated television specials, and videos for
children of all ages. Even after his death in
1991, Dr. Seuss continues to be the
best-selling author of children's books in the
world.
