Another one of Seuss's adult picture books. This one is a hilarious parody on the medical system, meant to be given to your child on "his 70th birthday". I really love Dr. Seuss's rhyme scheme, and his ideas are truly one in a million. I can just imagine myself sitting in the doctor's office...

    A coming of age for us oldies? Hey, it's Dr. Seuss, why not. We follow an old guy through his sudden realization the he's hit the 'old' factor.

    I'm not old in my head and don't think about it until I see myself in a mirror. It's a scary deal. It's delinated as a children's book, but I'd market it as an adult picturebook.

    Now that I'm an old broad I can sympathize with Seuss on the aging dilemma. Dr. Seuss is Seuss and covers it well.

I really love Dr. Seuss's rhyme scheme, and his ideas are truly one in a million. I can just imagine myself sitting in the doctor's office waiting for Ms. Becker, the beckoner, to beckon me back to the examination room. Truly wonderful :)

    CLASSIC! One of the 3 Dr. Seuss books I have carried with me through life. Simple stories with powerful messages we should always remember. Reminds me to keep a youthful innocence no matter you much life tries to jade you.

    A ... humorous ... look at aging in America. Good to give someone who's going through an overabundance of medical tests. Or who doesn't like to take medicines.
