I work as a Foster Grandparent at a Primary School reading to and being read to by children in grades Pre-K through Fourth Grade. Of all the Dr. Seus "I Can Read It All By Myself" Books, this one is my very favorite. It is so easy to read to the younger children and so entertaining. I thought that I had lost my own copy of this book, so I bought another one. Now I have two copies. I'm sure my own grandchildren will enjoy this book, too.
This is the first book I actually remember owning as a child. It obviously left a good impression on me. This book allows a child to imagine and teaches a very good moral (wishing we had things we don't, doesn't always work out well). It also teaches appreciation for our unique situation in life. I decided to buy this book because I now have two small grandchildren and think that they would enjoy this book as much as I did as a young pre-k child. I remembered so much about this book myself, and as they say tried and true is the best way to go.
A beautiful book high quality with a lovely story. I read this book to my daughters and have now purchased this copy for my 3 year old grandson who loves it. Simple language, easy to read and easily understood by the pre school child
When my son was small, our daily reading sessions usually included Dr. Seuss. This was his favorite book. He has a vivid imagination, so this book fit him to a T. As a parent, I liked the moral of the story, which is: It is best to be yourself. I can still recite most of the book from memory. I bought the book to be a "mystery reader" @ my grandchildren's school. Each week a mystery reader visits the school and reads to Pre-school through 5th grade.
I Wish That I Had Duck Feet was one of my son's favorite books when he was little (he's now turning 25). When he outgrew his children's books, I donated them to a family who could not afford many books for their child. Now I've decided to replace his favorite books for him. I just re-read this book and found myself smiling - what a great book for children of any age (even 50). Terri, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada
I loved this as a kid, loved reading this to my kids, and now love reading it to my grandkids!

This is a very good book for young readers. It teaches children to think about the pros and the cons of wishing for things. I think everyone can relate to this book. So many people wish to change things about themselves and always think that it would be good. They don't always think about the negative things that could happen. This is a classic Dr. Seuss book.
