Dr. Seuss's Sleep Book

Can there be a Dr. Seuss book that's actually underrated? Though it's overshadowed by the tongue-twister nonsense of Green Eggs and Ham and Fox in Socks and by characters like the Lorax, the Grinch, and that troublesome cat, his Sleep Book may well be his masterpiece. From the moose and goose dreaming of moose juice and goose juice to the exhausted salesmen of Zizzer-Zoof seeds—"which nobody wants because nobody needs"—it's a sweet and sprawling atlas of a whole world heading off toward a goal that any bedtime-reading parent can believe in: a good night's sleep.
