![The Butter Battle Book: [New York Times Notable Book of the Year] [Classic Seuss - Picture 1 of 1](https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/yEwAAOSwIWVY9xiA/s-l500.jpg)
I like “The Butter Battle Book” and “The Sneetches”. I laughed and smiled and laughed. I’m 60 years old. I don’t really recommend these two in particular for children under 15 because seems too big an issue for the younger ones. I suppose anyone with a nip under their nose would find it very amusing. Just saying. A funny book. Better than a lot of junky books out their.

Studying Dr. Seuss since he has passed away. I learned about it in a documentary about his life and how parents complained that he frightened their children during the Cold War. It was well written but better for adults, or obsolete children as he called us.

I bought this for a 6-year-old. I don't think it is appropriate for this age but a great book for older children and adults.

So relevant to politics and wars today! If only we could learn from Dr. Seuss the pointlessness of violence as a solution to disagreements.

I love how Theo. always put more into these books than meets the eye. It truly is a parody on the nuclear arms race, which was and still is such a relevant topic. It playfully points out how obscenely absurd this game nations are or have played is--just as absurd as fighting over butter up or down on your bread. As my first grade students, who have no idea of the parody or concept of the nuclear arms race, pointed out, "why fight? What does it matter? Just enjoy the bread!" This book makes it clear, event to young readers, living in fear based on simple choices, is no way to live.
One of the best Dr. Seuss.
