Dr. Seuss's ABC

Dr. Seuss’s ABC, by Dr. Seuss
This kooky classic alphabet book imparts such wisdom as: “X is very useful if your name is Nixie Knox. It also comes in handy spelling ax and extra fox.” Dr. Seuss’s ABC is the optimal combination of alliterative nonsense and familiar words, all without too much tongue tangling. Thirty-something years later, I still remember and enjoy every word of this book from my childhood. My husband, however, is somewhat put off by the ending’s Zizzer Zazzer-Zuzz. (You’ll see.)
