This wonderful book addresses many issues related to prejudice, superiority, judging others, segregation, division of people, rigid thinking (You're Wrong and I'm Right) as well as "Fear of the UNKNOWN"..in 4 short stories. It was written around the period of the US Civil Rights movement, and was a way that Dr Suess hoped to reach youth, by exposing them to the adult nonsense of judging people by the way they look. Due to the current trend of Woke-ism in modern education, most modern books that attempt to address this topic end up creating more division, hatred, confusion and self-doubt rather than understanding and self-reflection. Mercifully, we can go back a few decades and find someone with the wisdom of Dr Suess, who came from a place of love. Although this may not be "the best" of his writing, it is surely one of the most important in terms of the themes it brings up. Also, if you are triggered by my using the term WOKE...just ignore this review and look up the book yourself and see if you like it. And as I struggle to find good children's books and young adult titles that are not influenced by WOKE culture, perhaps someone will find this review of use.Read full review
