Fun Book submitted by jarroyo on July 19, 2013, 8:13am This is a fun book. My children love it. It's a bit long, but my children don't seem to mind.

cat in the hat submitted by Vikash on July 26, 2013, 9:31am it was cool that the cat in the hat could balance so many things while standing on top of a ball.

Great Book to Teach Rhyming submitted by candyceh811 on June 12, 2015, 12:21pm I absolutely love Dr. Seuss books and the Cat in the Hat is a great book to use when teaching young children about rhymes.

good submitted by poptart887 on August 22, 2016, 7:24pm this is a good book, but very long, too long for young children

Brings back good memories submitted by lstorc on August 27, 2018, 6:46pm This is still a fantastic book! I remember my sister using the Cat in the Hat as an example to use her stuffed cat to blame "accidents" on.

Not great submitted by Aimless on July 24, 2019, 6:19pm The fact it is a classic story does not make it a good story

Another must read! submitted by crp on August 4, 2019, 10:49am Another must read classic!

Favorite submitted by andye on August 4, 2019, 12:34pm This book is one of my favorites

This one's a little chaotic. submitted by lisa on August 5, 2019, 5:27pm Not my favorite Seuss. But it has its charms.

A Classic for Children submitted by Jinxuan Duan on August 7, 2019, 10:13pm Dr seuss's books are always a classic for children!

loved it submitted by autumnmist on August 15, 2019, 1:43am A CLASSIC

Like the cat submitted by smr on July 1, 2020, 4:45pm Like the cat in the hat

Love Dr. Seuss submitted by JennJenn on August 4, 2020, 10:09pm I love Dr. Seuss but this book and its counterpart The Cat in the Hat Comes Back always made me nervous as a child because I was sure that the cat was going to get the children in trouble. It is always interesting to ask the question of whether they would tell their mom what had happened to a group of preschoolers and see what their responses are.

A classic submitted by whitta151 on August 5, 2020, 9:32pm I love this book,and it was one of the first books I could read by myself.

Such a Classic submitted by sonya r. on August 17, 2020, 8:47pm Everyone knows this book! It is fit for all ages. I never get tired of it.

We love it. submitted by KazueKawakami on August 21, 2020, 10:16pm Classic is good(^^)

Like it submitted by irmcpherson on July 31, 2021, 6:01pm This is a great book. I like to read it again and again.

Anxiety Inducing submitted by alemmon100 on August 6, 2021, 11:03am It's a classic, but this book has always given me anxiety! Plus as an adult I don't love the idea of a stranger coming into the house while mother is out. But my kids love it and we come back to it Time and time again!

Great book submitted by bullhorse on June 10, 2022, 11:43am A great book! My kid asks me to read over and over again.

old memories! submitted by graytabby on August 4, 2022, 12:02pm i remember reading this as a two-year-old and imagining the cat coming into my house on a rainy day :) love this book!

classic submitted by emaelshaikh on August 20, 2022, 7:47pm fun read for little

Classic Dr. Seuss Book submitted by blancharddana on June 13, 2023, 9:17am A little too stressful and suspenseful for me, but nonetheless a classic.

Good silly fun submitted by sdimpf1 on July 16, 2023, 10:31pm My 2 year old loves this “silly cat.”

Kids book submitted by Noah Oron on July 21, 2023, 9:38pm For little kids it's better read by an adult. Catchy and fun. Dosn't get old

My favorite character CAT IN THE HAT! submitted by MoonOGate on August 4, 2023, 1:31pm Fun and fantastic!

The Cat in the Hat submitted by HannaHerm on August 21, 2023, 9:15pm Long read and not always easy to keep kids engaged, but enjoyable children’s book.
